We are all wrapped up until the State Fair moves out again, and Margo Jones and Matthew Tomlanovich’s portraits are watching from the booth.

See you all for performances in December! Stay tuned!

VOLUNTEERS WELCOME on August 7th to help us spend a few hours closing up shop and saying goodbye to our space for a few months! We're almost done for the season before we close up for the State Fair to move in.

Message us if you'd like to say goodbye with us and clean up the Margo Jones for hibernation.

Check out The Revolutionists by Lauren Gunderson in our space right now while you still can!

The Margo Jones is proud to announce that we will be switching to an "All Snapchat, All The Time" model from here on out.

After much deliberation we realized that live theater is too engaging and rewarding for this modern era, and so instead of carefully crafted productions involving face to face interactions with other human beings we will be offering a carefully curated string of our favorite Snapchat stories exclusively available through our Xynga page.

Check us out at Xynga.com/MargoJonesTheatre for more information!
