Steel Magnolias might not be the show for your young one to enjoy, but that doesn’t mean they can’t join you. PlayMakers has partnered with Seed Art Share to provide on-site childcare for ages 4-12 with engaging, theatre-based fun while you enjoy the performance.
This performance will feature Open Captioning, allowing you to read along with the dialogue.
Join us after the show for a post-show discussion to talk about the play with members of the Steel Magnolias cast and creative team.
