— Group Therapy Productions presents Robert Harling’s comedy-drama “Steel Magnolias.” All proceeds from the show will benefit Empowered Women International. “Steel Magnolias” focuses on the camaraderie of six southern women who talk, gossip, and harangue each other through the best of times and comfort and repair one another through the worst. The play is alternately hilarious and touching with six female characters that are delicate as magnolias yet as strong as steel.
