After drawing a tremendous response to auditions, WCP is
proud to announce our cast for STEEL MAGNOLIAS,
opening May 3, 2025.
In this comedy-drama, the local ladies meet each week for
appointments at the Louisiana beauty salon run by Truvy Jones. This
lively group of friends with varying personalities enjoy looking
forward to an upcoming wedding, but a change in health soon takes a
loved one away. Friendships support and comfort as life moves on...
STEEL MAGNOLIAS is known for its ability to evoke both
laughter and tears, often simultaneously!
