Time Out New York's David Cote talks with guest host, songwriter Erin McKeown, about sports on stage, including — no joke — a musical adaptation of the classic boxing movie Rocky. And: We hear from Thomas Kali, director of the NBA drama Magic/Bird, and D.J. Sparr, who composed the music for Approaching Ali, an opera about the boxer Muhammad Ali.
