In Tuna, the third smallest town in Texas, living is far from easy – even in the 24 hours before Christmas. Bertha Bumiller decorates the tree by herself, again – her kids and philandering husband who knows where. Director Joe Bob Lipsey’s “A Christmas Carol” may never see opening night if Tuna Electricity turns off their lights for missed payments. R.R. Snavely sees aliens. The Smut Snatchers of the New Order are determined to find (and excise) the dirty words in Christmas carols. And Vera Carp will do just about anything to hold on to the trophy for the annual yard decorating contest, although the mysterious Christmas Phantom may have other ideas.
Spend the holidays in the fictional town of Tuna, Texas where laughter abounds when three performers: David Coker, Robin Rushing, and Alan Ashman play twenty-one different characters with dozens of costume changes. This play is a fun-filled, satirical look inside the workings of a small town at Christmas. This isn’t your typical holiday show, and may not be appropriate for some people. Happy Holidays!
