Glema Mahr Center for the Arts 

Before the iconic 1989 film broke box office records nationwide, Louisiana salon owner Truvy first set up shop on the stage. The colorful cast of regulars and employees that frequent her establishment include a mother-daughter duo planning a wedding, a woman who’s “been in a bad mood for 40 years,” and a mysterious newcomer. Through laughter, tears, and a thick fog of hairspray, these women face trials and triumphs armed with their greatest strength: each other. Produced by special arrangement with Dramatists Play Service.

Dinner will be served in the Anne P. Baker Gallery.

Tickets: Dinner & Play: $30 ∙ Play only option: $14   (TICKETS FOR THE DINNER & PLAY ARE NOW SOLD OUT, PLAY ONLY TICKETS ARE STILL AVAILABLE.)
