Miss Magnolia Beaumont Goes to Provincetown

About the Show

Miss Magnolia Beaumont Goes to Provincetown returns to Cincinnati after selling out its run at the 2011 Cincinnati Fringe Festival and garnering the Critics’ Pick of the Fringe Award. The show also appeared in the 2010 New York International Fringe Festival at the Studio at Cherry Lane Theatre, receiving critical acclaim and a FringeNYC Overall Excellence Award. Most recently, the show appeared at the Roy Arias Cabaret in Times Square, NYC.

Southern debutante Miss Magnolia Beatrice Devareux Beaumont has choked to death on the meat of a pork rib, only to find herself suddenly inhabiting the body of a thirty-something, gay New Yorker (to whom she refers as Master Joseph) on his way to Provincetown, Massachusetts for a birthday vacation. But before Miss Beaumont can quietly get used to Master Joseph’s cosmopolitan, gay lifestyle, an offensive painting suddenly jolts her into his awareness. After the initial shock and a few disagreements, the two spend the rest of their trip discussing the deeper meanings of life, why they were brought together, and why a simple kite can be such a magical thing. More than a monologue, Miss Magnolia Beaumont Goes to Provincetown is a modern comic fantasy celebrating the beauty and magic of P-town.
