COA Theatre: Greater Tuna

The WSA events year will close with a theatrical flair in June with another play on-stage in the Pond Room. Theater Mode Productions, the group that brought us Love Letters and Diaries of Adam & Eve in the past, will return in June to present this hilarious comedy about small town morals and mores. This long-running off-Broadway hit features two actors creating the entire population of Tuna, Texas’ third smallest town. Through quick costume changes and characterizations, you’ll meet 20 characters at radio station “OKKK.” Listen as two clueless disc jockeys become, among others, weatherman Harold Dean Lattimer reporting on a swarm of locust, Pete Fiske of the Humane Society talking about the duck problem, and Phineas Blye, perpetual losing candidate for city council, revealing his plan to tax prisoners. It’s outrageous, irreverent, funny, eccentric, and exaggerated! Since 1981,

Greater Tuna has played on and off-Broadway, in Scotland, at the White House, on Late Night with David Letterman, and as an HBO Special. On June 25, it comes to the Jenks in Winchester. Don’t miss this performance. You’ll have a barrel of laughs, ya’ll.

Doors will open at 7:30 p.m. for refreshments and beverages, including a cash wine bar, with curtain time at 8 p.m. Tickets are $15 and can be purchased at the Center and at Book Ends. Call 781-721-7136 to reserve tickets and seats for this show.
