Steel Magnolias - Theatre Performance
Fauquier Community Theatre..... Friday & Saturday 8pm; Sunday 2pm
4225 Aiken Drive, Warrenton (at the Vint Hill complex)
The action centers around Truvy's beauty parlor and some women who regularly gather
there. The drama begins on the morning of Shelby's wedding to Jackson and covers
events over the next year, including Shelby's decision to have a child despite having
Type 1 diabetes and the complications that result from the decision. We also get a
glimpse of the unlikely friendship between Clairee and Ouiser; Annelle's transformation
from a shy, anxious newcomer in town, to a partying woman, then to a religious
fundamentalist; and Truvy's relationships with the men in her family. Although the
main storyline involves Shelby, her mother, and Shelby's medical battles, the
underlying group-friendship among all six women is prominent throughout the drama.
Tickets: $14 adults; $12 students & seniors age 60 or older
Reservations are recommended. Tickets can be purchased at the door, by mail,
or by
phone: (540) 349-8760. For more information visit the website: www.fctstage.org.

The Music Man - Theatre Performances
Highland Center for the Arts, Rice Theater..... Thurs-Sat at 7:30pm; Sunday at 3pm
597 Broadview Avenue, Warrenton
The Highland Players present Meredith Willson's The Music Man. An affectionate
paean to Smalltown, U.S.A. of a bygone era, “The Music Man” follows fast-talking
traveling salesman Harold Hill as he cons the people of River City, Iowa into buying
instruments and uniforms for a boys’ band he vows to organize – this despite the fact
he doesn’t know a trombone from a treble clef. His plans to skip town with the cash
are foiled when he falls for Marian the librarian, who transforms him into a respectable
citizen by curtain’s fall.
Tickets: $10/adults; $5/children under 18
