Texarkana Waltz by Louis Broome


A love letter from the Los Angeles Times

Singing cowboys, inflatable cactuses and echoes of "Hamlet"--the unlikely counterpoint of Wild West parody and Elizabethan revenge tragedy--propels Circle X Theatre Company's premiere of "Texarkana Waltz" to dazzling lunacy at the Los Angeles Playhouse.--Philip Brandes

Electric Theatre Presents Red Meat Substitutes

   

Rare recordings of Tulsa's legendary ensemble
From 1985 to 1991, Red Meat Substitutes terrorized Tulsa, OK, with their no-holds-barred brand of theater. In 1988, Tulsa's public radio station, KWGS, asked the Meats to create an hour's worth of radio plays for Electric Theatre, a radio series performed live before a studio audience. They did. Listen to one scene from the infamous radio broadcast of the group that scarred Tulsa's collective psyche, Red Meat Substitutes.
La Maison Cochon, by Louis Broome (8 minutes)
