00:07mum Malin in Steel Magnolias which is coming to IPAC tomorrow or June the 3rd
00:14until? Yes, until June 11th. And we're very excited about being here in
00:19Wollongong after playing Brisbane and Sydney and for those of you who know the
00:25movie, the play actually did come first and so we're getting to do the very
00:30original story based on a real one with our fellow awesome, funny, gorgeous,
00:36giving cast mates Mandy Bishop, Lottie Beckett, Belinda Giblin and Deborah
00:41Lawrence. Very funny women, very, very strong, we've been so fortunate to
00:47have such an incredible cast to work with and I think this play being a true
00:53story written by Robert Harling, the brother of Shelby. It's such a beautiful
00:59story that still resonates today nearly 40 years on and women and men that have
01:05been coming to the show you know they've left feeling really really full. We make
01:10you laugh, we make you cry and we can we can pretty much promise that we can
01:14almost guarantee that you will like if you walk away and you don't laugh I would be
01:18shocked. And you guys have a really lovely intimate theatre here so it's our first
01:24day on the set and it feels very nice in this space so we hope that you can come
01:29down and share a bit of this very gorgeous story with us. Yeah we're very
01:32excited to be in Wollongong so thank you for having us and please come and join
