The Pittsburg-Camp County Arts Council presented Steel Magnolias over the weekend in Pittsburg. Directed by Sheila Brown and played by a cast of seven talented ladies, the performance, written by Robert Harling after the loss of his sister, is set in Truvy’s beauty salon in Chinquapin, Louisiana. All the “important” women in town come to Truvy’s to have their hair done while catching up on the local news. While battling the inevitable “life”, these ladies show their mettle by encouraging one another through the bad and enjoying the good together.
