Tulsa King

Kansas City got burned over tax incentives for Tulsa King

In another case of tax incentives making a huge difference, the Sylvester Stallone mob drama Tulsa King was set in Kansas City before Oklahoma tax incentives convinced creator Taylor Sheridan and the rest of his team to switch locales. Steph Shannon, director of the KC Film Office, said her team was “heartbroken” by the decision — and determined to get tax incentives passed that would keep other productions in town.

At least Tulsa King has made good use of its new setting — Tulsa’s auditory marvel The Center of the Universe fits into the show’s themes perfectly.
