The Lyceum Theatre will be the home of the Broadway premiere of STEEL MAGNOLIAS, the award-winning Off-Broadway play and popular film by Robert Harling, now set to begin performances March 15, 2005.  Directed by Jason Moore (Tony® Award nominee for Avenue Q), STEEL MAGNOLIAS will open Monday, April 4, 2005.

STEEL MAGNOLIAS stars the previously announced Delta Burke as Truvy and Tony® Award Winner Christine Ebersole (42nd Street) as M'Lynn, with scores of actresses still auditioning to play the other four strong southern women who inhabit Truvy's beauty parlor.

An Off-Broadway hit in 1987, STEEL MAGNOLIAS played 1,126 performances at the Lucille Lortel Theatre, following a short run at the WPA Theatre.  Selected as one of The Best Plays of 1987-1988 by the prestigious theater yearbook of the same name, STEEL MAGNOLIAS has since been performed in hundreds of productions around the world. 

STEEL MAGNOLIAS will be produced on Broadway by Roy Gabay and Robyn Goodman.
