  John McConnell in Earl Long in Purgatory October 21 Actor John McConnell received national acclaim as Huey Long in The Kingfish, and Ignatius J. Riley in A Confederacy of Dunces. Now, he brings another Louisiana legend to the stage -- the rip-roaring populist and political master Earl K. Long. A three-time Louisiana governor, “Uncle Earl” was a force of nature, an over the top politician who became a legend in his own time. In this spiritual comedy/drama Long moves in and out of madness, recalling his brawling career and ribald escapades as his soul waits for him to plead his case to the Almighty. 7 pm |
