Take a trip down south to Texas’ third smallest town, Tuna. First, we meet Thurston and Arles on their talk radio show. Today’s topics include the winner of the American Heritage Essay Contest (a piece entitled “Human Rights – Why Bother?”), local auditions for My Fair Lady (which will now be set in Polynesia so they can make use of last year’s South Pacific set), and the scandalous death of Judge Buckner. The cast of characters, all hilariously played by just two actors, continues to expand as we meet upstanding citizens of Tuna like puppy poisoning Pearl, used gun store owner Didi, and R.R. – an old coot who regularly sees UFOs. You’re in for plenty of laughs with this send-up of small town folks that Variety calls “Howlingly funny.”

THE LODGE PERFORMING ARTS CENTER
18 Villa Court, Elgin, IL
The Lodge Performing Arts Center, 18 Villa Court in Elgin, was initially constructed in 1927 as a home for the Elgin Elks Fraternal Order. After many years of celebrating brotherhood at this location, the building was used as office space until it was reborn as an entertainment venue in 2026 following an 18-month, $2 million dollar renovation. The Lodge Performing Arts Center is home to two resident theater groups, Schaumburg On Stage/Students on Stage and point2point productions. In addition to these two production companies, the lower level is home to the Elgin Arts Showcase, an innovative black box performance venue operated by the City of Elgin. Outside organizations are free to inquire about rental availability at thelodge@schaumburgonstage.org. Both the Elgin Art Showcase and The Lodge Performing Arts Center are fully accessible for persons that require barrier-free access at our 220 DuPage Entrance. Both spaces are equipped with accessible seating and accessible bathroom facilities. The Lodge Performing Arts Center has Enhanced Hearing Devices for all performances upon request. Units are limited, so please contact us prior to the date of your arrival at thelodge@schaumburgonstage.org to reserve your hearing device.
