"Full of strong, lovable characters, humorous and heartfelt moments, and an abundance of crisp witty dialogue, it's easy to see why Robert Harling's 1987 comedy-drama Steel Magnolias is an often-produced, crowd-pleasing play more than thirty years after originally premiering. Fountain Hills Theater presents a winning production of this lovable show with a talented cast of actresses who deliver rich performances of six very different but also very strong Southern women....Harling's play is very well crafted, with six very different, defined and rich characters...Director Roger Prenger has found six strong actresses to portray these lovable characters, and his staging and pacing work well to ensure the humorous moments get laughs while the emotion-filled scenes tug at your heart. The actresses exhibit a natural bond, closeness, and chemistry with each other that makes it believable that they've known each other for years...With a talented cast and assured direction, Fountain Hills' production is a beautifully moving and often times hilarious look at the power of friendship and how, as Truvy says, "laughter through tears" is the best kind of emotion.........
