We are bringing the ladies of Chinquapin back for our tenth season.


Set in a small-town Louisiana beauty salon, Steel Magnolias weaves a heartfelt and humorous tale of friendship, resilience, and love. Six remarkable women gather regularly to share laughter, tears, and their unshakable bond as they navigate life’s joys and challenges. Filled with sharp wit and tender moments, this beloved play celebrates the enduring strength of community and the beauty of friendship in the face of life’s trials.

Inspired by Robert Harling’s own life, this play will warm your heart, stir your soul, and remind you of the profound power of love and friendship. Join us this Spring for an unforgettable journey through the laughter and tears that make life truly meaningful.
