Ana Hagedorn channels regional theater pioneer Margo Jones in a spirited solo performance, Let Me Talk My Dreams, in the Fair Park venue Jones founded.

The actress on her one-woman show about Margo Jones, Let Me Talk My Dreams, now playing at the Margo Jones Theatre in Fair Park.

Ana Hagedorn didn’t know who Margo Jones was until she noticed a plaque at the theater on Southern Methodist University’s campus named for the theater visionary. Hagedorn wanted to flesh out the woman beyond the place named in her honor. The result is Let Me Talk My Dreams, a one-woman show making its world premiere at the Margo Jones Theatre at Fair Park from May 24 -28.

The world premiere of "Let Me Talk My Dreams," a one-woman play about Margo Jones, written by Ana Hagedorn, will be presented in the most fitting venue possible. The Margo Jones Theatre at Fair Park is where the legendary Miss Jones originally practiced her craft.

"Let Me Talk My Dreams" introduces audiences to Margo, the real life Dallas-based theatre legend and innovator. 

"Let Me Talk My Dreams," a new play about the life of theatre firebrand Margo Jones, will premiere at Dallas’ original Margo Jones Theatre in Fair Park, May 24–28, thanks to a year’s worth of work by actor and playwright Ana Hagedorn (M.F.A. Theatre ’18) and the collaboration of Hagedorn’s colleagues, many of whom are Meadows faculty, students and alumni.
