Designing Women poster

Released in 2021, Designing Women is a notable film directed by Harry Thomason.

What it’s about. A world premiere play bringing the megahit television series to life for our current age. Teeming with raucous hilarity and channeling the series’ one-of-a-kind, trademark voice, Designing Women sets out to re-unite its audience—if nothing else—in laughter. It’s 2020, and Julia, Suzanne, Mary Jo, and Charlene are partners in the Atlanta-based interior design firm, Sugarbaker’s—but with the firm in crisis, they’re on the verge of a radical decision to sell the business and separate. A timely, whip-smart and deeply funny new Southern comedy set to take the theatre world by storm.

Who’s in it. Designing Women stars Sarah Colonna as Mary Jo Shively, Carmen Cusack as Julia Sugarbaker, R. Ward Duffy as Wynn Dollarhyde and Debra Capps as Charlene Frazier, among others.
