This was our first time at this theatre, it was intimate and we have great seats. I wasn't sure how they were going to pull this play off without the male characters and taking place only in a beauty salon, but they did a great job. Nice set, good performances, I especially liked Shelby's mom she looked and acted very similar to Sally Fields. The play brought me to laughter and tears even though I've seen the movie several times and knew what was going to happen. That says a lot about the performances. The other couple we went with also enjoyed this play.

It was my first time going to the Point Loma Assembly which was a warm cozy atmosphere and very friendly staff volunteers. The stage area reminded me of an early 19th century grange hall. The beauty parlor set was well done. The characters in the play lacked the temperment of "Steel Magnolias". The Anelle character was the best. Unfortunately the central figure the daughter seemed to produce no sentiment when she passed away as she came across as a bratty character. Ouzer did her best although she jumped in and out of charcter at the end. By the end it just seemed to run out of gas.
