There is no late seating in the Texas Spirit Theater. 

No other state has a culture as distinct as Texas, and there's no better way to understand the passions and oddities of Texans than through their absolute love for Texas barbecue.

Barbecue: A Texas Love Story is an entertaining and humorous journey through the common fabric that weaves Texans together and makes them a never-ending object of fascination around the world. Take a tour across the Lone Star State, from the “Church of the Holy BBQ” to a BBQ cave in the desert to the Great Texas Mosquito Festival. You’ll even meet a group of University of Texas students so passionate about barbecue they lead “barbecue missions."

Narrated by former Texas Governor Ann Richards, the film features notable Texans such as Dan Rather, Kinky Friedman, Liz Carpenter, Ray Benson, and Chris Layton.

Emmy-nominated and winner of "Best of South By Southwest Film Festival" at SXSW '04, Barbecue: A Texas Love Story has been called "charming," an “effervescent documentary,” and worthy of “four stars.”

Barbecue: A Texas Love Story opens at the Texas Spirit Theater of the Bob Bullock Texas State History Museum on March 3, 2009.

Ticket prices are $5 for adults, $4 for seniors, military, students, and youths age 18 and under. The Texas Spirit Theater is located in the Bob Bullock Texas State History Museum at 1800 N. Congress Avenue at the corner of Martin Luther King, Jr. Blvd. For more information, call (512) 936-TSHM.
