Independent Journalism in Dallas Needs You
We need to raise $12,500 by August 9 to support the reporting our community depends on. Reader support keeps us independent and is playing a larger role in funding local journalism and shaping what comes next. If you believe independent local journalism matters, make a contribution today.
There aren’t many situations in which 2-for-1 is a bad thing, except, perhaps, if you’re unprepared for twins. Lucky for you, the Dallas Opera isn’t having twins. Instead, it’s offering a powerful double feature of La Wally and the world premiere of Everest at the end of this month. The evening begins with an abridged version of the rarely presented La Wally, a fierce Alpine romance featuring a young heroine who realizes love delayed isn’t the same as love denied. Following is the eagerly awaited world premiere of Everest, the story of an ill-fated climbing expedition and the tragic events surrounding it, which boasts a solid cast and stunning visuals. Head to the Winspear Opera House (2403 Flora St.) at 7:30 p.m. Friday to take advantage of the opening night of this steal of a deal. Tickets start at $25. Visit dallasopera.org for more info.
