New Berlin Eisenhower to Perform 'Steel Magnolias' Oct. 21-22

The New Berlin Eisenhower Theater Family is excited for this year’s theatrical season entitled, “A Season of Family,” which kicks off with performances of Robert Harling’s Steel Magnolias, Oct. 21-22.

“Each show in ‘A Season of Family’ explores its own concept of family,” said Eisenhower theater director Natalie Baertschy. “Some are those we are born into; some are those we make for ourselves. Our families, regardless of origin, are our champions in the best of times but also our greatest support system in the worst of times.”

In Steel Magnolias, six women, with six very different stories, share laughter, love, life, and loss in their favorite living room – the garage turned beauty shop nestled in a small Louisiana parish. These women celebrate the joys of a wedding, the miraculous birth of a baby, new found relationships, but also a mother’s grief after the tragic loss of her daughter. When words fail, the silence of their sisterhood provides.

Join us for love, laughter, and tears on Friday, Oct. 21, and Saturday, Oct. 22, at 7:30 p.m. for New Berlin Eisenhower’s production of Steel Magnolias. Tickets will be available at the box office beginning at 6:45 p.m. both evenings. Doors to the theater will open at 7 p.m. for general admission. Tickets are $10 for adults and $7 for seniors and students with a valid ID. Please call the box office at (262) 789-6326 for specific accessibility accommodations.
