WORLD PREMIERE

“TAMALALIA FOREVER!”

As every good Houstonian knows, Tamarie Cooper creates another in a series of wholly original, full-scale musicals every summer—a Houston institution with a cult following—featuring wildly irreverent scripts, riotously funny songs, wackadoodle dances, spectacular sets, large casts of quadruple-threat performers, a small but mighty band, and of course Houston’s own Carol Burnett, Lucille Ball, and Bugs Bunny rolled into one, the undefeated champion of ass-clownery, Tamarie Cooper, co-star Kyle Sturdivant forever at her side, chewing up all her expensive scenery.

What you might not know is that every ten years, Tamarie creates a Greatest Hits show, featuring the best moments from a decade of really great moments with a ridiculous new script and a couple brand-spanking new songs to tie the whole thing together.

The very first Tamalalia , premiered in a two-night stand on the tiny Orange Show stage in the summer of 1996. This summer marks a major milestone: 30 dang years of all-new Tamarie Cooper Shows . (World premiere.)

It's not just the story of a mother and her daughter. It's the story of all of us who have ever had to face the unexpected and find strength where we thought there was none.

In this show, inspired by her book, Claudia Valdés takes us on a profound and luminous journey about love, resilience, and hope. With humor, emotion, and soul-stirring truths, she reminds us that limits can be broken and that every obstacle can be transformed into an impetus to soar higher.

A gathering to laugh, get emotional and leave believing that, no matter who you are or what your story is, we all have an astronaut inside.

Con humor, emoción y verdades que tocan el alma, nos recuerda que los límites pueden romperse y que cada obstáculo puede transformarse en un impulso para volar más alto.

Un encuentro para reír, emocionarse y salir creyendo que, sin importar quién seas o cuál sea tu historia, todos llevamos un astronauta dentro.Read more
