It Was a Steel Magnolias Weekend at MRH

The MRH actresses played to three good crowds.

Six actresses brought the story of six women from Chinquapin, LA, in Steel Magnolias to the MRH auditorium from Thursday through Saturday.

A good-sized crowd of parents and students came to watch the final performance on Saturday night. Before the show, MRH theater teacher Holly Potthoff said the Thursday and Friday performances went very well, and she had her fingers crossed. The Saturday show was a success too.
