Steel Magnolias is a comedy-drama about the bond between a group of southern women in north-west Louisiana. It was written by Robert Harling, based on his experience of the death of his sister. The title suggests that the female characters are as delicate as magnolias but as tough as steel. The magnolia specifically references a magnolia tree they are arguing about as the drama opens.
