Come take a trip down south to Texas’ THIRD smallest town, Tuna. First, we meet Thurston and Arles on their talk radio show. Today’s topics include the winner of the American Heritage Essay Contest (a piece entitled “Human Rights-Why Bother?”), local auditions for My Fair Lady (which will now be set in Polynesia so they can make use of last year’s South Pacific set), and the scandalous death of Judge Buckner. The cast of characters continues to expand as we meet upstanding citizens of Tuna like puppy poisoning Pearl, used gun store owner Didi, and R.R.-an old coot who regularly sees UFOs. You’re in for plenty of laughs with this send-up of small town folks.
The production, directed by Matthew Reynolds, has a cast of ten actors and actresses who will portray all twenty characters of the show. “This journey has really opened up these performers in ways that really has allowed them to bring some BIG characters to the stage!” states Matthew. Performances are April 20th-23rd at 7pm, with a matinee Saturday, April 23rd at 2pm! Tickets for Students and seniors are $5- and for Adults $7-. Come on down and see what small town living is ALL cracked up to be!
