The Drunkard November 09, 2024

This has been a weekly “Tulsa event” and one of the “Tulsa performing arts” venue since 1953! Every Saturday evening at Tulsa Spotlight Theater begins with the doors opening at 7:00 p.m., and the show starts at 7:15 with a singalong and the Olio: dancers, musicians, singers, jugglers, magicians, or comedians. The main event is “an old-fashioned mellerdramer” called “The Drunkard.” During intermissions we serve concessions, beer, coffee, soft drinks and (no kidding) tomatoes to toss at the villain. The “Riverside Studio is a Tulsa icon built in 1928, and home of America’s longest-running play. The play is directed by Mark Roberts and Chuck Osuna. This is “Tulsa family entertainment” at its best!
