Steel Magnolias is a poignant and sharply funny portrait of Southern womanhood. Over the course of three years, six women gather regularly at Truvy’s salon to share gossip, swap recipes, tease each other, and support one another through life’s highs and heartbreaks.
From the excitement of weddings and babies to the devastation of loss, their conversations (punctuated with wit, warmth, and honesty) reveal the deep bonds of friendship that sustain them.
Written with humor and heart, Steel Magnolias is a tribute to the strength and resilience of women, reminding us that even in the face of unimaginable grief, life goes on, with laughter, lipstick, and love.
Auditions will be held on January 15, 16, & 17, 2026.
Performances will be held on May 1, 2, 3, 8, & 9, 2026.
All auditions, rehearsals, and performances will be in Katonah, NY.
