Welcome Back to Tuna, Texas!
Greater Tuna is a hilarious and irreverent comedy about Texas' third smallest town, where the Lion's club is too liberal and Patsy Cline never dies. The eclectic band of Tuna citizens - men, women, children, and animals alike - are portrayed by only two performers, making this satire on life in rural America both crazy and delightful as they change characters and costumes at breakneck speed. Called "a good ol' down-home laugh-out-loud fest," Greater Tuna has enjoyed worldwide success, including long-running engagements both on and off-Broadway, at the White House, and as an HBO special.
Actors Gary Rucker and Sean Patterson first visited Covington shortly after Hurricane Katrina. Around the world and back, fourteen years later, they bring a new and improved version to the Rivertown Theatre stage. Friday and Saturday shows at 8 pm, and Sunday shows at 2 pm., with an additional 8 pm Thursday night show on the 24. $36.94. (504) 461-9475. rivertowntheaters.com
