Steel Magnolias

The intimate, dialogue-driven storytelling feels so natural on stage. I'm curious if there was a specific reason he chose this format over prose or film.

The characters felt so real and distinct, making the themes of grief and resilience hit close to home. Would love to hear if others felt a particular character's journey more personally.

The bonds between the women are timeless, but some interactions might feel dated. Do these relationships still resonate with modern audiences?
