Steel Magnolias, a hilarious and heart-warming play set in a Louisiana beauty shop, continues at Theatre at the Center (TATC) in Munster through March 25. In keeping with the play’s message about the bonds of friendship and family, TATC added March “Makeover” Madness on Thursday, March 15 as an opportunity for friends to get together for pampering, dinner and a play.
“Before the play became an iconic film and garnered an Academy Award for Julia Roberts, it was a funny and touching Off Broadway play about the bonds of friendship and family,” said Theatre at the Center (TATC) Artistic Director Linda Fortunato, who directs this new production of Steel Magnolias in Munster.
During the March “Makeover” Madness event, guests can enjoy a delicious plated pre-show dinner served at 5:45 p.m., prepared by Chef Joe Trama, purchased as a discounted combination ticket for the dinner and theater package for $55 (plus tax). A Cash Bar is also available. Theater tickets are $42.
When guests present their theater ticket for the evening’s performance, they receive FREE admission to the March “Makeover” Madness event, located in the ballroom across the lobby from the theater at The Center for Visual and Performing Artsfrom 5 to 7 p.m. Before the curtain goes up on the 7:30 p.m. performance, guests can enjoy a relaxing chair massage, receive a makeup application and take home samples of beauty products from local salons. Vendors will also announce the winners of “beauty inspired” raffle prizes at the culmination of the March “Makeover” Madness portion of the event.
Several local salons and spas will be on hand to display products, offer discounted coupons and distribute give-a-ways to guests while they last. Vendors include Spa Pointe & Hair Studio, Sophia’s HairDesign and Salon on Ridge in Munster and Navii Salon and Spa in Schererville. Krystal Quagliara, ACE Certified Personal Trainer and Beach Body Fitness Coach, will also be on hand to answer questions, demonstrate effective workout routines and offer samples of healthy, nutritious shakes.
