TeePee Drive-In looking to showcase the talents of local filmmakers

The TeePee Drive-In, a Route 66 icon seeing a resurgence since reopening in April of 2023, has already seen an uptick in attendance with its popular summer program where tickets are sold per carload instead of individually on Wednesdays. The fact that the TeePee’s hometown of Sapulpa was name-dropped in the recent “Twisters” sequel didn’t hurt, either.

But instead of resting after a successful summer showcase, the TeePee is using the momentum to draw more visitors to the big screen on The Mother Road with a new initiative to showcase the talents of local filmmakers.
