The many curtain calls of Dallas’ Magnolia Lounge
From talking motion pictures to live theater, this versatile performance space from the ’30s in Fair Park has seen it all.

The Magnolia Lounge in Fair Park has lived several lives.
During the Texas Centennial Exposition in 1936, it served as a rest stop for fairgoers, and shortly after, it was reconfigured into a performance space for traveling vaudeville performers. Ten years after the lounge’s opening, theater powerhouse Margo Jones fashioned it into one of America’s first professional theater-in-the-round stages: a layout where audience members surrounded the stage.
