Bursting with some of the best melodies GERSHWIN ever penned – “Summertime,” “A Woman Is A Sometime Thing,” “I Got Plenty O’ Nuttin,’” and “It Ain’t Necessarily So” – PORGY AND BESS depicts a world not unlike that of New Orleans. The citizens of Catfish Row battle poverty, sickness, drugs, crime and hurricanes, and yet triumph through their faith, their sense of community and their love of life. Don’t miss our colorful season opener, starring Gordon Hawkins and Lisa Daltirus.
