Steel Magnolias Theatre Reviews

When did popular become a dirty word? STEEL MAGNOLIAS is a joy precisely because of it's universal appeal. It is a pleasure to spend two hours in the utterly charming company of these fine southern ladies. Don't let the memory of the overwrought movie adaptation keep you away. STEEL MAGNOLIAS was first, and remains, a tightly constructed play. Taking place in four scenes (over two acts) set in the town's leading beauty parlor it tells it's story in beautiful, if appropriately leisurely, fashion. The cast is sublime. Frances Sternhagen cannot strike a false note. Rebecca Gayheart and Christine Ebersole do a lovely job of subtley reminding us of the steel of the title at the center of their characters. Delta Burke, Marsha Mason and Lily Rabe lend seemless and divine support. STEEL MAGNOLIAS is one show I wouldn't mine checking back in with in a couple of months. As with any good ensemble, the ladies of STEEL MAGNOLIAS will only get better with time as these wonderful actresses get the chance to fully inhabit the world Robert Harling has created for them. Long may it run.

We saw Steel Magnolias in previews this past week. We drove down and back in a snowstorm and it was worth the trip!

Frances Sternhagen was remarkable! She clearly steals the show as a function of the character, Clairee, but more so her crisp and impeccable delivery. Delta Burke was also quite impressive as Truvy making the character her own. Also making quite an impression was Lily Rabe as Annelle. Her growth and character change throughout the piece is very well done. These three actresses made me quite forget the screen portrayals, no small feat.

The other three actresses in the production suffer from the ability to recall the screen personas and/or a failure to reinvent the characters. I was initially disappointed in Marsha Mason's portrayal of Ouiser, though she did seem more comfortable in the second act. The performance will no doubt grow more even with time.

I'm not sure the same can be said of Christine Ebersole or Rebecca Gayheart's portrayals--it's tough to compete with the "ghosts of performances past." Ebersole's M'Lynn comes off as cold or unsympathetic. Her big scene at the end almost seems to come from left field and doesn't inspire the emotional response from the audience one would expect. Gayheart's Shelby never seems to allow us to become emotionally vested in her or her decisions.

Overall however this is an enjoyable evening in the theatre and one I recommend.

I thoroughly enjoyed seeing Steel Magnolias today. The combination of cast members was exceptional, as was their animation and chemistry. I've seen the movie many times and it was exciting to see the combination of new lines with existing dialogue. Two thumbs up!
