Within the walls of Truvy’s beauty shop are six women whose lives increasingly hinge on the existence of one another. Together, they absorb the passing seasons, just like the weathered wooden structure of the salon “home” that they share.
An LA Theatre Works full-cast production, starring
Frances Fisher, Jeanie Hackett, Shannon Holt,
Amy Pietz, Brittany Snow, Jocelyn Towne. Additional voices by Josh Clark.
Directed by Jessica Kubzansky and recorded before an audience by LA Theatre Works.

“At first, one simply enjoys the small-town Southern voices of Truvy’s Beauty Shop—the humor, the asides, and the gossip. But soon listeners realize that they’re completely wrapped up in the lives of these characters—the beautician, the widow, and the young woman with her whole life ahead of her. L. A. Theatre Works has tapped into some of the best female character actors working in American film and television—Brittany Snow (Pitch Perfect), Amy Pietz (Star Trek: Next Generation), and Frances Fisher (Pink Cadillac)—in this reprisal of the 1989 blockbuster film. This live recording is enhanced by the sounds of an appreciative audience taking in every word of a play that has become a popular classic of Americana.”
