You won't want to miss this production with our own local stars; Mary Ellen Marzullo, Kathy Devitt, Ellen Voorhees and Rosalie Donadio along with Heather Matarazzo & Tara Klements under the Direction of Tara McQuaid as they recreate the drama and the comedy found in the southern beauty salon in Steel Magnolias, as the lives of six women unfolds over a two year period. You will walk away with a better appreciation of the often said, "That which does not kill us, makes us stronger." Tickets are $12 at the door, or, $10 when purchased in advance by calling 609-442-7957. A portion of the net proceeds of this show will go to the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation.
The theater group assembled several years ago and began by putting on their debut production in the summer of 2006 with their own interpretation of the Gilbert and Sullivan play "Pirates of Penzance" with a local flair for America's 3rd port of Entry, Tuckerton titled "the Pirates of Tucker's Island". And, performed for its audience at the reconstructed Little Egg Harbor Lighthouse, aka Tucker's Lighthouse. The theater group has grown in experience and popularity with their performances of their productions of; The Boor, Taxi, Mornings at Seven, Dinner, Tony at the Heiress, Angel Street, Lend me a Tenor, Dracula, Love Letters, and Plaza Suite. They are yet another reason why the community calls itself "Little Treasure by the Bay".
