The Mount Paran Players are presenting Steel Magnolias at The Strand as a benefit for MUST Ministries August 14-16. The 1987 play, which went on to become a Broadway success in 2005, revolves around the close friendships of six women in a small Louisiana parish who gather at Truvy’s Beauty Parlor. The ladies discuss everything from men to religion to the serious decision that could result in one friend’s death. The play was made into a movie in 1989 with an all-star cast including Julia Roberts, Sally Field, Dolly Parton, and Shirley MacLaine.
