Clayton Winters as Cowboy Bob in Texarkana Waltz, University of Oklahoma
LOUIS BROOME
Texarkana Waltz
"Singing cowboys, inflatable cactuses and echoes of "Hamlet--The unlikely counterpoint of Wild West parody and Elizabethan revenge tragedy--propels Circle X Theater Company's premiere of "Texarkana Waltz" to dazzling lunacy at the Los Angeles Playhouse. One of those rare works that manages to tickle the funny bones while plucking the heartstrings, Louis Broome's well-crafted, semi-autobiographical play employs modern and classical sensibilities to examine the troubled Wicketts, an Oklahoma clan coping with its violent past."

RED MEAT SUBSTITUTES
Louis was a founding member of Red Meat Substitutes, a Tulsa, OK theater ensemble that wrote, directed, produced, and performed original works from 1987-1991. In that time, Red Meat staged 60 short and one-act plays in seven productions and one live radio broadcast. Each show's theme was determined by the ensemble during a night of drunken revelry. What began as a ragtag, unorganized group of scrappy theater junkies playing to almost no one, evolved into a professional ensemble playing to packed houses.
