Love, laughter, and a little mischief take center stage in this jazzy twist on Jacques Offenbach’s beloved rom com “La Périchole.”

Set in Prohibition-era New Orleans, “Songbird” follows two struggling singers and devoted lovers chasing success in a city that never plays by the rules. This one-act production of the Kentucky Opera is performed in both French and English. Catch it onstage:

  • Friday, Feb. 13 | 8 p.m.
  • Sunday, Feb. 15 | 2 p.m.
  • Tuesday, Feb. 17 | 7:30 p.m.
