Bell Theater Presents: Steel Magnolias

July 25 – August 10

Join us at Bell Theater from July 25 through August 10 for Steel Magnolias!

Before the iconic 1989 film starring Dolly Parton and Julia Roberts broke box office records, Louisiana salon owner Truvy first set up shop on the stage in Robert Harling’s masterpiece play.

The colorful cast of regulars and employees that frequent her establishment include a mother-daughter duo planning a wedding, a woman who’s “been in a bad mood for 40 years,” and a mysterious newcomer. Through laughter, tears, and a thick fog of hairspray, these women face trials and triumphs armed with their greatest strength: each other. Steel Magnolias remains one of the most iconic comedies in the American dramatic canon.
