A heart-warming and bittersweet comedy, Steel Magnolias is the funniest play ever to make you cry... and now on tour starring Isla Blair, Cherie Lunghi & Denise Welch, with further star casting to be announced.

A truly moving play that celebrates the strength and value of friendship, humour and love in the midst of life’s greatest hardships with all the sweet gentility of Southern belles and with strength and wit made of steel, these special ladies will have you crying and laughing together.
