Steel Magnolias

my friend Merle played the part of Clairee (Olympia Dukakis's character). It was the perfect role for her!

This looks so fun! I miss going to plays. When I lived in Columbus I volunteered at a children’s theatre and had season tickets to another.

@wiesnerbeth get yourself to a local theatre production. There have to be a zillion of them where you are. Even high school productions are pretty impressive these days (and you might even luck out and see a former student).

@margonaut Oh thank you for reminding me of that! I had a former student email me a couple years ago saying she got into the theatre program at one of our specialty schools. I should see if she’s in anything this spring.
