Interview: Aerial Roots Theatre Company of A NICE INDIAN BOY at Asia Society Texas Center
by Brett Cullum - Jul 15, 2026
We felt very much at the end of the last run that we were not done telling the story. For one, we had rehearsed this for so long, and to just do the 5 shows over 3-4 days. It was not enough for the cast and the creative team, and it was not enough for audiences either, because many people shared how deeply this touched them and how much more they wanted to see.

TAMARIE, MISS MARPLE, THE WIZARD OF OZ & More Lead BroadwayWorld's 2025 Houston Summer Theater Picks
by Brett Cullum - Jul 9, 2025
When you think of summer, you think of food, but rarely do you immediately think of thespians and theater. But why is that? Theaters are cool and dark, and they often seem like great places to escape the heat.

Review: ANOTHER DING DANG TAMARIE SHOW! at Catastrophic Theatre
by Brett Cullum - Jun 29, 2025
Truly, these shows are ingenious musical sketch-comedy pieces that remind me a ton of both Carol Brunette and variety shows of the 70s as much as something like a South Park, The Simpsons, or Family Guy. They are a chance to watch “serious actors” let go and do really silly fun stuff that they almost never get to do in any other play, unleashed by any other company.

Interview: Tamarie Cooper & Kyle Sturdivant of ANOTHER DING DANG TAMARIE SHOW
by Brett Cullum - Jun 10, 2025
This show is a Houston summer tradition, and it is the Catastrophic Theatre's version of A Christmas Carol at the Alley or The Nutcracker at the Houston Ballet. Except every year, this one's a new script and a new ball of crazy to enjoy.

It is a show presented by Shunya Theatre that will be at the MATCH complex from April 10th through the 13th.

Interview: Miika Stewart of LOVE BOMB at Catastrophic Theatre
by Brett Cullum - Nov 23, 2024
It is all about just telling stories through this little world that we create together, and many of us just bring in many of our personal experiences as actors or even just through our lives. And the show really invited that openness, for sure, because LOVE BOMB or just love in general is a topic that can go so many different ways.

Review: LOVE BOMB at CATASTROPHIC THEATRE
by Brett Cullum - Nov 17, 2024
LOVE BOMB is a masterpiece of the absurd, but at the same time, it’s a viable Melanie jukebox musical that could command any stage in town. Yet I doubt that any company other than the Catastrophic Theatre will ever dare to do so because it asks much of its audience.

Review: SPIRITS TO ENFORCE from Catastrophic Theatre
by Brett Cullum - Sep 22, 2024
Are the superheroes really simply the spirits that Prospero conjured on the island? Could Fathom City have been taken over by Dr. Cannibal (an anagram for Caliban) because he fled and tossed his books into the sea? Is this a sequel, a salute, or a sardonic spoof of Shakespeare’s work?
