Set in the fictional northwestern Louisiana parish of Chinquapin, the play opens at Truvy's in-home beauty parlor where a group of women regularly gather. Although the main storyline involves Shelby and her mother, the plot covers events over the next three years relating to Shelby's Type 1 diabetes, and with how the women cope with their conflicts, while remaining friends; Shelby's decision to have a child despite jeopardizing her health, Clairee's friendship with the curmudgeon Ouiser; Annelle's transformation from a shy, anxious newcomer in town to a confident woman, her mother M'Lynn, and Shelby's medical battles, and most importantly, the group's underlying friendship is prominent throughout the drama.

Warning: This play will feature gunshot sounds, an explosion sound, and a prop gun in the first scene.
