Z, a gay teenager, and his father live together in a crumbling old house in rural Georgia. When Z discovers a trove of mysterious love letters among his late grandfather’s belongings, he goes on a journey of self discovery that just may have the power to wake the dead. THE MAGNOLIA BALLET is a Southern Gothic fable about a Queer Black boy, his father, and the ghosts that live in the walls of their old family home.

“This tender, searing, funny, and thoroughly moving new piece by Terry Guest packs more humanity in its 95 minutes than many projects do over multiple acts.”
—Chicago Reader
