The Dick TaPhone Tapes

A 1983 improv comedy sketch featuring the satirical character Betty Barthlomew in a talk-show format.

This piece reflects an early exploration of character, absurdity, and comedic voice, created outside of any formal framework or expectation of outcome. Included here as a formative example of playful storytelling and performance as a creative tool. 


NOTE: Contains irreverent regional and religious satire.
