The Steel Magnolias are inviting you to the BeeKay Theatre!

Join TCT's Steel Magnolias in their favorite beauty salon, Truvy's, to have the time of your life. Not just a place for a pretty hairdo, but a place where you find yourself rooting for this gang of absolutely matchless characters.

Be charmed by generous-hearted Truvy (Jamie Uhtof) as she embraces her little flock with homey southern wisdom.

Then root for Annelle (Ali Whitlach) Truvy's new assistant, as she makes the transition from not even knowing whether she's still married or not, into a life-altering path.

Hurt with M'Lynn (Monica Nadon), our protective-warrior-mom, as she struggles for her daughter Shelby (Emily Stults-Estrella), the prettiest girl in town, but also the most determined, who's willing to risk her own life for "thirty minutes of wonderful".

Be curious over wealthy Clairee (Janet Lund), who can't seem to control her outrageous appetite for sweets, yet still manages to be the town's social leader and someone who can also motivate the almost impossible Ouiser (Ruthanne Jennings) into lovability. "I'm not crazy, I've just been in a bad mood for 40 years!"

These amazing women will remind us, whether we are in good times or in bad, that our kindred affection for one another can see us all through.
