in Chinquapin, Louisiana is where all the ladies who are "anybody"

come to have their hair done. Helped by her eager new assistant, Annelle (who

is not sure whether or not she is still married), the outspoken, wise-cracking

Truvy dispenses shampoos and free advice to the town's rich curmudgeon, Ouiser,

("I'm not crazy, I've just been in a bad mood for forty years"); an

eccentric millionaire, Miss Clairee, who has a raging sweet tooth; and the

local social leader, M'Lynn, whose daughter, Shelby (the prettiest girl in

town), is about to marry a "good ole boy." Filled with hilarious

repartee and not a few acerbic but humorously revealing verbal collisions, the

play moves toward tragedy in the second act. The sudden realization of their

mortality affects the others, but also draws on the underlying strength—and

love—which give the play, and its characters, the special quality to make them

truly touching, funny and marvelously amiable company in good times and bad.</span></p>
