A TUNA CHRISTMAS to Open 11/15 at Circuit Playhouse

By: Oct. 29, 2013

The colorful residents of Tuna, Texas' third-smallest town, are competing in the annual Christmas lawn display contest when a mysterious Christmas Phantom wreaks havoc on the elaborate decorations. Meanwhile, Tuna's embattled theater director tries to get a troubled production of A Christmas Carol on its feet. Two actors play more than 20 characters, and multiple costume quick-changes help to put the riotous fun in holiday dysfunction in this audience-favorite.

A Tuna Christmas is directed by Ann Marie Hall and features Resident Company Member Michael Gravois (Red, White, and Tuna; Tuna Does Vegas) alongside John Hemphill (A Closer Walk with Patsy Cline).

A Tuna Christmas runs November 15 - December 29 at The Circuit Playhouse. The Pay What You Can performance is Thursday, November 21 at 8pm. The Circuit Playhouse is located at 51 S. Cooper Street. For more information or to make reservations, please call 901-726-4656 or purchase tickets online at playhouseonthesquare.org.
