The quintessential story of friendship, Steel Magnolias
serves up a slice of life in Louisiana that's as warm and
comforting as sweet potato pie. In the haven of Truvy's
beauty salon, six very different women come together to
share their secrets and bare their souls, throwing in a
little neighborly gossip for good measure. From weddings to
divorces, babies to funerals, new beginnings to happy
endings, they weather every event in their lives en masse
with grace, determination, and perfectly coiffed hair. When
tragedy strikes, it is in the familiar comfort of Truvy's
salon where they seek the solace and support that carries
them through.
The cast is: Emily as Truvy; Corinne as M'Lynn; Mimi as
Annelle; Alice as Shelby; Sammy as Ouiser; Lenna as Clairee.
