Poster for The Magnolia Ballet by Terry Guest, Directed by AeJay Antonis Marquis

Set beneath the shadow of a magnolia tree, The Magnolia Ballet follows Z, a young, Black queer teen growing up in small-town Georgia. While exploring a deeper love with his white friend, Danny, Z experiences a melee of memory, dance, and surrealism as the ghosts of elders past – and their secrets – roam.

Lerner and Loewe's My Fair Lady (Presented by San Francisco Playhouse)

The poster for Lerner and Loewe's My Fair Lady. Against a black background, a red carnation sits with petals floating through the air.

Based on the film adaptation of George Bernard Shaw’s 1913 play Pygmalion, My Fair Lady is a beautiful musical about transformation, patronage, gender politics and class. Acclaimed phonetician Henry Higgins makes a wager that in six months he can pass off Eliza Doolittle, a Cockney flower girl, as a duchess at an embassy ball. But through arduous training, day and night, this innocuous bet turns into something much more.

In the summer, an old man and an old woman sit on a park bench, talk about the birds, and bet on the rain…but things aren’t as simple as they may seem. With humor and tenderness, the singular imagination and innovative style of acclaimed playwright Jiehae Park turn the ordinary into the extraordinary as the seasons shift. A play about memory, forgiveness, and the possibility of becoming at any age.

Show is approx 90 minutes long with no intermission.

This is an ADA-accessible venue.

Closed Captioned performance.

Tickets: $47-134
