STEEL MAGNOLIAS at City Theater

By:

City Theater in Biddeford continues their 2016-17 season with the Robert Harling's southern comedy-drama Steel Magnolias May 12-27, 2017. Infused with heart and humor, Steel Magnolias is a hilarious and touching story of love, loss, and enduring friendship.

It's the 1980s in Louisiana and at Truvy's beauty shop the motto is: "There is no such thing as natural beauty." The women are all sass and brass. Through clouds of hairspray and over the buzz of blow dryers, six Southern spitfires gather each week to gossip and support each other through thick and thin. But those bonds are about to be tested when the ladies face a life-changing event.

The ensemble cast includes Jessica Dunton Fidalgo (Saco) as Truvy Jones, Elizabeth Lester (Saco) as Annelle Dupuy-Desoto, Mary Bouche (Kennebunk) as Clairee Belcher, Maddy Jarvis (Hollis Center) as Shelby Eatenton-Latcherie, Rebecca Cole (Windham) as M'Lynn Eatenton, and Candace Jamerson (Portland) as Ouiser Boudreaux.

Steel Magnolias performances are May 12-27, 2017. Ticket prices are $20.00 Tickets can be purchased by calling the theatre at 207-282-0849 or ordered online at www.citytheater.org.
