Theatre Scene

A Texas “Hit”

January 16, 2020 Dr. Cliff Cunningham 0

The 2013 play by C. Denby Swansen, The Norwegians, has arrived but not in Austin. Should you care? In a word, yes. If you want to laugh pretty much non-stop for 90 minutes, this is […]

Texas Caves and Cave Art

January 9, 2020 Dr. Cliff Cunningham 0

Inner Space cavern was discovered by a Texas Highway Department core drilling team in the Spring of 1963. Six inch core samples were taken to determine if the ground was stable enough to support a […]

Natural Bridge Caverns

January 5, 2020 Dr. Cliff Cunningham 0

Show People

August 11, 2019 Dr. Cliff Cunningham 0

Show People is a rather vague play about 4 nutty people coming together to act in a ‘Grand Charade’. The driving force is Tom, who hires a couple to portray his parents in a weekend […]

SPACE TREK

August 11, 2019 Dr. Cliff Cunningham 0

If you ever wondered what Star Trek on steroids would be like (and who hasn’t!) pay a visit to The Gaslight Theatre in Tucson. They are currently staging Space Trek, a version of Star Trek […]

Ann Richards: The Play

August 4, 2019 Dr. Cliff Cunningham 0

The play Ann by Holland Taylor is just about as controversial as the person who is the subject of the play: Texas Governor Ann Richards (1933-2006), who served one term from 1991-1995. I often ask […]

Cowboys in Space

August 2, 2019 Dr. Cliff Cunningham 0

If you thought the Wild West was only in Texas, look up to the sky. Cowboys In Space, a new exhibit at the Bullock Museum in Austin, shows that cowboys fly spaceships at least as […]

Commander in Cheat

August 2, 2019 Dr. Cliff Cunningham 0

It is amazing that author Rick Reilly can say so much about Donald Trump’s personality based on a golf game. So much, in fact, it fills a whole book: Commander in Cheat. Reilly contends you […]
