Sally Struthers in "Steel Magnolias", "Fiddler", "Annie" & "Nunsense"

Well, isn’t this just a small world? Sally Struthers also has a role in an off-broadway reproduction of "Steel Magnolias" – just not the same one as Kelly Bishop.

Sally Struthers stars as Truvy, the beauty shop owner, in the Casa Mañana reproduction of "Steel Magnolias" which is currently playing in Fort Worth, Texas (it ends tomorrow).

As you know from the earlier plot description, the "Steel Magnolias" stroy takes place in Louisiana, where six women share their lives – the happiness and the tragedy – in Truvy’s beauty salon.

Truvy, Sally Struthers’ character, was played by Dolly Parton in the 1989 movie. She is, by far, the funniest of the characters in the film, and perfect for Sally Struthers.

Sally Struthers gave a witty interview to the Star Telegram. Sally says "the reward of cash is always welcome" when comparing on-stage and off-stage acting, but says that working onstage to a live audience reaction is priceless.

Sally Struthers will be doing a lot of theater work this season. After finishing with "Steel Magnolias," she will play Golde in "Fiddler on the Roof" at the Ogunquit Playouse in Maine, then will reprise her role as Miss Hannigan in "Annie". After that, she will be going on a 20th anniversary road tour with "Nunsense" as Mother Superior.

Also quite exciting – Sally Struthers is in discussions with HGTV for a reality show!
