"Men are suppose to be made out of steel or something"


That's a line from the off-Broadway play Steel Magnolias. The Potter Players Community Theater group have been working hard getting ready to open a week from tonight bringing this comedy-drama presentation to our area. It's a story about the bond among a group of Southern women in northwest Louisiana. It's a Robert Harling play that debuted in NYC in 1987. It proved so popular that two years later they made a movie based on the original script.

Stop by and see what goes on in Truvy's beauty shop and the women that gather there. Wellsville's Erin Roberts-Orr will be making her own debut with the zany PPCT cast of characters. As they say on their web cite "come prepared to laugh a lot and maybe shed a tear or two". If you bring a receipt from any local salon you will get a dollar off the regular ticket price.

It's an award winning play that you won't want to miss.

Checked out the theatre blog and saw Angela Bucher Boso is playing the part of Annelle in "Steel Magnolias". Her parents are Al & Debbie (I think). Looks like a great line-up of local talent.
