Opéra Louisiane Presents “Rocking Horse Winner” and “Approaching Ali”

Opéra Louisiana presents a double bill of Rocking Horse Winner and Approaching Ali at the Manship Theatre. Based on D.H. Lawrence’s short story, Rocking Horse Winner tells the story of a developmentally challenged boy fighting to win his mother’s love. Equally compelling, Approaching Ali tells of a young man who becomes obsessed with Muhammed Ali after seeing him on television in the 1960s, and his journey to eventually meet his hero. Shows at 7:30 pm March 31, 3 pm April 2. $25–$100 at bontempstix.com. operalouisiane.com.
