Project Title: STEEL MAGNOLIAS
Venue: The Phantom Projects Theatre at La Habra Depot

Directed by: Sydney Raquel

ABOUT THE SHOW: Truvy’s beauty salon in Chinquapin, Louisiana, is where all the ladies who are “anybody” come to have their hair done. Annelle: who is not sure whether or not she is still married. The outspoken, wise-cracking Truvy
who dispenses shampoos and free advice to the town’s rich curmudgeon, Ouiser,  an eccentric millionaire (“I’m not crazy, I’ve just been in a bad mood for forty years”). Miss Clairee, who has a raging sweet tooth; and the local social leader, M’Lynn, whose daughter, Shelby (the prettiest girl in town), is about to marry a “good ole boy.” Filled with hilarious repartee and not a few acerbic but humorously revealing verbal collisions.
