What do you get when you put six southern women in the same beauty parlour on the day of a wedding?
A whole lot of trouble.
Based on the hit Broadway show and movie, Steel Magnolias is set to light up viewers’ hearts and the stage at the Northern Lights Performing Arts Pavilion.
Part of the Highlands Summer Festival, the play is on from July 30 until Aug. 9 and features a magnetic cast, under the direction of the talented Scot Denton.
