'Greater Tuna' Swims into NCTC 8/10
The New Conservatory Theatre Center of San Francisco presents a Bay Area favorite, Greater Tuna, beginning August 10, opening August 18 with performances at the Walker Theatre through September 16.
"Greater Tuna is the hilarious comedy about Texas' third smallest town, where the Lions Club is too liberal and Patsy Cline never dies," states press notes, "Greater Tuna began as a simple party skit based on a political cartoon more than twenty years ago in Austin, Texas. Talented creators Joe Sears, Jaston Williams and Ed Howard were the imaginative authors that parlayed the sketch into a critically acclaimed production which has entertained audiences across the country ever since. The eclectic band of citizens residing in this town is 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."
NCTC's production will star local favorites, Markham Miller and Richard Ryan; directed by Vic Chaney.
Previews are August 10 – 17, Opening August 18 through September 16. Performances are Wednesdays – Saturdays at 8PM and Sundays at 2PM.
The New Conservatory Theatre Center (Walker Theatre) is located at 25 Van Ness Avenue at Market Street in San Francisco
Tickets are $22 for previews, $40 for opening night and $22-$34 for all other shows. Tickets are available at NCTC's Box Office 415-861 8972 or online at www.nctcsf.org
