One
of my all-time favorite movies is “Steel Magnolias.” I have seen it multiple
times and each time it is still very funny and emotional, even though I know
what’s coming.
We’ll have an opportunity once again
to see “Steel Magnolias” in Hot Springs. This time it won’t be the movie, but a
stage production at the Pocket Theatre. I can hardly wait!
The Dramatists Play Service
describes the play as, “Concerned with a group of gossipy southern ladies in a
small-town beauty parlor, the play is alternately hilarious and touching-and,
in the end, deeply revealing of the strength and purposefulness which underlies
the antic banter of its characters.”
Pocket Theatre is one of many art
forms in Hot Springs. The Theatre was begun in 1991, has grown and moved
several times and, in 2005, acquired their building, the former Ramble
Elementary School, which was closed in 1967. The Theatre is situated at the
corner of Ravine and Ramble Streets off Park Avenue in downtown Hot Springs.
The play takes place Feb. 7-9 and
14-16 with evening performances and some matinees. For more information go to www.pockettheatre.com.
The Diamondhead community supports
all the arts in Hot Springs and is always excited when new productions are in
town. If you come to Hot Springs to see “Steel Magnolias,” we’d love to have
you come out for a tour of Diamondhead. It’s a terrific community on Lake
Catherine and a wonderful place to live and enjoy all the Hot Springs arts.

Diamondhead.
