Photos: First Look at Tacoma Little Theatre's STEEL MAGNOLIAS

Tacoma Little Theatre begins its 104th Season with the return of one of our most requested titles, Robert Harling's Steel Magnolias. This dynamic new envisioning of the show will be directed by Deanna Martinez.

Check out photos from the production below!

Truvy's salon is Chinquapin, Louisiana's go-to place for a beauty fix with a hearty side of gossip. Along with her overeager assistant Annelle, Truvy pampers her small-town clients with hairdos, manicures, and all kinds of unsolicited advice. Anybody who's anybody is a regular: There's the doting M'Lynn and her soon-to-be-married daughter Shelby; the moody Ouiser; and the well-to-do widow Clairee. Through witty banter and wisecracks, this hodgepodge group of women form friendships as strong as steel, which they are forced to lean on when tragedy strikes.

Tacoma Little Theatre's production of Steel Magnolias features Janice Williams as Truvy, Samantha Jane Lobberegt as Annelle, Laurice Roberts as Clairee, Aliyah Shines as Shelby, Shelleigh-Mairi Ferguson as M'Lynn, and Stephanie Leeper as Ouiser.
