TICKETS COMING SOON

MAGIC tells the story of a young girl who wakes up from an accident with no memory of who she is or the extraordinary gifts she once had. Determined to find her voice and reclaim her power, Magic embarks on a journey through history. She encounters remarkable women who have shaped the world with their courage and wisdom, helping her rediscover her true self.  MAGIC is a restorative tale of self-discovery, resilience, and the timeless power of women of color voices. This unforgettable theatrical experience will leave you questioning the true magic within us all.

WHAT TO EXPECT

SENSITIVITY STATEMENT: MAGIC is a deeply immersive and transformative production that explores complex and multifaceted themes, including racism, sexism, mental health, personal identity, manipulation, and the enduring impact of life’s challenges. While the play serves as a space for healing, reflection, and growth, it also delves into the realities of systemic oppression, personal struggles, and societal injustices.
We recognize that these themes may evoke strong emotions, memories, and reflections, particularly for those who have experienced similar challenges in their own lives. Our intention is to approach these subjects with care, respect, and responsibility, fostering dialogue and awareness without exploiting pain or perpetuating harm.
As you engage with the production, we encourage you to honor your emotions and responses. Resources and support will be made available for those who wish to process their experiences in a safe and compassionate environment. We also invite audiences to approach the play with an open heart and mind, understanding that its purpose is to illuminate, inspire, and create space for shared humanity and understanding.
Through MAGIC, we aim to hold a brave and restorative space where the complexities of life can be explored with dignity and care, reminding us of the resilience of the human spirit and the possibility of transformation.
This show is recommended for ages 13+ as there are conversations surrounding racism, sexism, and the violence of silence and erasure, that might be difficult for folks who are younger.

RUN TIME: 90 minutes, plus a 15 minute intermission.

POST-PERFORMANCE: On Thursday, Feb 20, there will be a 30 minute talkback with the creator, Kiyaana Cox Jones, and the cast, immediately following the performance.

She is surrounded by butterflies, including two purple butterfly pins in her hair. Behind her head we see the shadow of her future self, the woman that she will become, engulfing her in a vibrant violet. Written on her dress is the word “Magic”, and in the bottom right corner we see “By Kiyaana Cox Jones”.]
