On this street you’ll discover that magnolia trees have hearts, unexpected friendships are the best kind, and 1944 can be just around the corner.

Using cutting edge multimedia and electronics to blur the line between what’s imagined and what’s real, Australia’s Frank Newman directs with his trademark combination of sharp storytelling and beautifully surprising animation.

Hold your breath — you're arriving at Magnolia Street.

“Newman’s latest theatrical experiment, housed at New Zealand’s Capital E…is allowing him to explore the most cutting-edge and unexpected ways to reinvent the experience of theatre for young audiences.” - TYA Today, USA, 2012
