ABOUT RED WHITE & TUNA
ABOUT THE SHOW FROM THE TUNA WEB SITE
The much anticipated third installment in the Tuna trilogy makes its debut as Joe Sears and Jaston Williams take the audience through another satirical ride into the hearts and minds of the polyester-clad citizens of Texas' third smallest town.
Along with Tuna's perennial favorites, some new Tuna denizens burst into the 4th of July Tuna High School Class Reunion. This sets the stage for a show full of fireworks and fun from the land where the Lion's Club is too liberal and Patsy Cline never dies.
Its been several years since we left Bertha and Arles dancing at the end of A Tuna Christmas ...Did the romance blossom? Has Didi Snavley received any "cosmic" communications from R.R.'s UFO? Did Stanley make his fortune in the Alburquerque taxidermy business? These and other burning questions will be asked and answered in the side-splitting spoof of life in rural America.
The tongue-in-cheek humor that made Red, White and Tuna's predecessor, Greater Tuna, so entertaining couldn't be more up to date. Though originally written and produced more than 20 years ago, our country's contemporary political shenanigans and the Religious Right have put the basis for this satirical trilogy right back in the headlines of today's news.
Master comedians Joe Sears and Jaston Williams take the stage once more as the sole performers playing all of Tuna's inhabitants including men, women, children and animals (thanks to 40 lightning-quick costume changes). In this latest saga, all the Tuna favorites return as the Prayer Posse led by Vera Carp and Reverend Spikes take on church hymns while Petey Fisk continues his off-beat pleas for a more humane Tuna. The flirtatious Tastee Kreme gals have a food booth at the Reunion serving Aunt Pearl's prize winning potato salad that may have been in the heat too long. You'll laugh till it hurts when you find out who the mystery write-in winner of the Homecoming Queen Contest is. Just another day in the life of Tuna, Texas.
