Greater Tuna
By Jaston Williams, Joe Sears, and Ed Howard
May 11, 12, 18, 19, 8:00pm
Greater Tuna is the hilarious comedy about Texas' third smallest town, where the Lion's Club is too liberal and Patsy Cline never dies. The eclectic band of citizens that make up this town are portrayed by only two performers, making this satire on life in rural America even more delightful as they depict all of the inhabitants of Tuna -- men, women, children and animals.
Returning after selling out shows at the Shadowbox last June, and again in Slidell in January!

From the very often inebriated minds of The National Comedy Company comes what we're pretty sure is the world's first LIVE CARTOON SKETCH COMEDY SHOW. In a show that's probably not physically possible, NCC: Drunktoons allows the audience to watch character actors perform the voices of hysterical (poorly) animated shorts live. Recommended for 18+ years of age.
Drunktoons was a smash at the 2012 New Orleans Fringe Festival! Don't miss your chance to see it!
