    Red Earth Theatre Presents Steel Magnolias

    logo_redearththeatreCottonwood AZ (October 14, 2018) – At Truvy’s beauty shop in Chinquapin Louisiana the motto is: “There is no such thing as natural beauty.” The women are all sass and brass. Gossip, revelations, and witty Southern banter flow like refreshing sweet tea on a hot summer day. Through clouds of hairspray six Southern spitfires gather each week to gossip and support each other through thick and thin. But those bonds are about to be tested when the ladies face a life-changing event. Infused with heart and humor, Steel Magnolias is a hilarious story of love, loss, and enduring friendship.

    Presented by Red Earth Theatre, Steel Magnolias draws on playwright Robert Harling’s real life experience with his sister’s death, and is a tribute to the love, friendship and support of the female characters who, as the title suggests, are as delicate as magnolias but as tough as steel.

     This timeless comedy will have audiences both rolling with laughter and grabbing their handkerchiefs.  The talented ensemble cast includes Red Earth full stage production regulars Terra Shelman as Truvy Jones and Ashlee Threlkeld as Shelby Eatenton-Latcherie, Mary Gladieux as Clairee Belcher, Tricia Greer as M’Lynn Eatenton, and Joan Westmoreland as Ouiser Boudreaux and Red Earth new comer Tisha Taylor as Annelle Dupuy-Desoto.

    Championed by long time Red Earth Theatre actress Terra Shelman, Steel Magnolias is directed by Mindy Mendelsohn. Producing Artistic Director Kate Hawkes says, ‘We are so fortunate to have Mindy at the helm of this production. I personally am delighted to – as a producer – watch this talented cast unfold the show knowing it is in excellent hands.”

    The Politics of Pain

     

    The Politics of Pain

    If there’s one thing nearly every living organism on this planet shares, it is the ability to feel pain. The pain of hunger. Of loneliness. Of illness. The pain of broken bones and broken bodies, broken hearts and broken homes. The pain of poverty, depression, the death of someone we love—and, eventually, the anticipation of our own death. Pain, in all its shapes and shadows, is the one certainty life gives us all. No one escapes it.
