Mildred's Umbrella Theatre Company Presents TOOTH AND TAIL By Elizabeth A.M. Keel

Part fairy tale, part rescue mission, part love story, and all adventure, this heartwarming show speaks to the imagination in all of us. 

Mildred's Umbrella Theater Company wraps up their 2022-2023 season with the world premiere of our first "all-ages" show, TOOTH & TAIL, by Houston playwright, Elizabeth A.M. Keel.

TOOTH & TAIL has been developed and workshopped through the support of Mildred's Umbrella Theater Company, and their ongoing commitment to the empowerment of female artists and their stories. The script underwent a live workshop reading, as well as a virtual one during the pandemic, and is at long last receiving this exciting premiere production. Jam-packed with princesses, dragons, pirates and more, TOOTH & TAIL is a fantastic swashbuckler that explores the dynamics of female friendship and love. Part fairy tale, part rescue mission, part love story, and all adventure, this heartwarming show speaks to the imagination in all of us.

(Parental Guidance suggested for young children due to mild cursing and stage combat.) Running May 4-13, 2023 at the DELUXE THEATRE, 3303 Lyons Avenue.

Review: COWBOY BOB takes her last stand at the Alley until March 26th! Photo
What did our critic think of COWBOY BOB at ALLEY THEATRE? Despite any narrative difficulties, COWBOY BOB is still something to see. It’s a celebration of what a daring musical should feel like. It asks tough questions, it presents us with gorgeous ballads, and it shows off truly Texan stage design that feels authentic. Like the real life Peggy Tallas, it’s a brave piece that moves in bold directions.

The Catastrophic Theatre to Present Regional Premiere of CLEANSED By Sarah Kane Photo
In a former university, society's “undesirables” are subjected to a series of tortures designed to test the limits of human love on the battlefield of the human body. Explosively aching, hauntingly poetic, and disarmingly tender, CLEANSED is a fever-dream fable of unimaginable brutality and miraculous beauty. CLEANSED is about how love survives the most extreme circumstances. Violence is merely the obstacle. The story is one of righteous need and unrelenting hope.
