three short plays by well-known Argentine playwrights Claudia Piñeiro & Claudio Regis

An evening of three short plays by well-know Argentine playwrights Claudia Piñeiro & Claudio Regis!

Cuánto vale una heladera (How much is a refrigerator worth) by Claudia Piñeiro, one of the most widely read authors in Argentina and worldwide.
The work subtly addresses, through humor, the theme of reclaiming identity in a modern, globalized, and bureaucratic world.

Mesa de Saldos (Sale Table) by Claudio Regis.
A man searches for books written and dedicated by hand by his deceased grandfather, whom he deeply admires. Claudio Regis easily captures our interest in participating in an intriguing everyday scene.

Tamarie's TEXAS Toast!

The Catastrophic Theatre

Tamarie's TEXAS Toast!

World Premiere, written by Tamarie Cooper & Patrick Reynolds

Tamarie and her merry band of musical maniacs are taking on the great state of Texas. 27 installments of all-new, full-scale original Tamarie Cooper musicals and there’s never been one about Texas? What? We’ve been saving it for you.

Expect huge dance numbers, massive songs, and gigantic belly laughs. Why? Because everything’s bigger in Texas, you tourist. This scorched, humid, political hornet's nest is ripe for spoofing from the collective minds of Cooper and Patrick Reynolds. Bank on douchey Austin tech bros, horny toads, the Alamo, sticker burrs, the TEA, and a certain governor, bless his heart. Plus, all the actual wonders that Texas has to offer: Tex-Mex, big hair, What-a-Burger, and the best city in the Lone Star State, H-Town, Baby! 

Tamarie's Texas Toast is both a toast and a roast of all things Texas. As always, Tamarie will be joined by a live band and a cast of Houston's funniest performers, bringing you an entirely original and completely irreverent musical bonanza. All from the bottom of Tamarie's Texas-sized heart. Read more
