Steel Magnolias

Santa Clara Players

October 26-November 17, 2007

Avg. Event Rating (4.5 Stars): Add Review/Comment

The close-knit women at Truvy's Beauty Salon have lots of time to gossip. Their husbands, absent, depressed, or dead, have made sure of that. Consequently, visitors to the salon get more than a wash and cut. Alternately hilarious and touching, the play focuses on the camaraderie of these six Southern women who talk, gab, gossip, chitchat, and needle each other through the best and worst of times.

    I attended the 2pm show on Saturday. The theatre was almost full. I was impressed by how the play was able to tell the story from one set. I had seen the movie and knew what to expect next. I couldn't imagine how they would tell the story from one set only but they did it to perfection. The timing between the actresses was flawless. I especially thought that the character who portrayed the mother was fantastic. The character who portayed Clairee had such an authentic southern accent, I almost thought she had been raised in the south! My 15 year old was laughing out loud so many times. And he also admitted to crying too. Thanks for putting on such a poignant show. We were still wiping away tears as we left the theatre. Collapse
