Singing crawdads & red windmills
Movies, theater and much more: your next week in NOLA culture!
New Orleans has been on screen a lot since the end of lockdown. Vampires (pictured), corrupt judges, returning veterans and boozy barflies have all featured in TV and movies set in NOLA recently. We rounded up the various projects into one handy list for you to peruse - see our top recent representations of New Orleans media here.
Baz Luhrmann brings his stage version of Moulin Rouge to town, and it’s an all-singing, all-dancing extravaganza. See our review of the updated production here.
We also followed up our feature on local visual artists with your own suggestions for creative superstars that we should know about - see those suggestions right here.
And of course, your seven-day diary of local cultural highlights, featuring poetry festivals, large puppet festivals and much more - plan your week right here.
We’re almost a year in to OAD and we’re looking to expand our operations, hire more reporters, etc. With that in mind, next week we’ll be launching a silent auction with lots of great items so that we can pay for local writers to bring you even more of your city, so please look out for that. Thanks to almost 1,000 of you for reading and supporting so far, it sincerely means a lot.
More next time. Have a great week, and much love.
Paul O
