Magnolia City
Sundays, Aug 16-Oct 4/Prohibition
The Moonlight Dolls proudly present their first murder mystery performance, Magnolia City. The story is based in 1926 when Houston was known as the Magnolia City, a place where only a handful of men shaped the future and nothing could stand in their way. Nothing but murder, that is…
Guests have the option of participating in this immersive theatre production by playing the role of such famous people as William P. Hobby, John Kirby, Minnie Nickels, and others. If acting isn’t your thing, general admission tickets are available for those who simply wish to sit back and help the Moonlight Dolls solve this murder mystery. Is it Mae West? Or Howard Hughes? What about Sophie Tucker? Remember, nobody’s clean in Magnolia City…
Watch a trailer for the show here.
