VISIT TUNA TEXAS WITH ETC
Island ETC (East-End Theatre Company) invites you to visit Tuna, Texas as we perform GREATER TUNA by Jaston Williams, Joe Sears, and Ed Howard. Performances are Friday, October 9 through October 31st at ETC, 2317 Mechanic in Galveston. Performances for this hysterical and irreverent comedy are Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays at 8:00pm and Sundays at 2:30pm (Oct. 11, 18, and 25).
The comedy depicts a day in the life of fictional Tuna, Texas, “the third smallest city” in the state. This play is a two act; two actor parody is a nonstop look at the daily activities of several of the more ‘colorful’ citizens brought to life at ETC by Kyle Crawford and Cameron Dunbar. As the saying goes, “this is not their first rodeo “ for either Kyle or Cameron. They starred together in GREATER TUNA produced by College of the Mainland a ‘few years back’ and a production of A TUNA CHRISTMAS at ETC ‘a year or two ago’ brought them back together again. And now they are back at it again! During a day, you will meet quite a few of the more (we hope) eccentric citizens of Tuna. Director, Kim Mytelka says, “ I must be honest, rehearsals for this production are just fun and crazy. Cam and Kyle are stepping into very familiar territory, so they have nuanced each role they play!” ”We honestly have no idea what will actually happen next.”
Costumes designed and created by Elizabeth Eketafai give each of the nine and ten characters they play even more dimentiality. The set is designed by Thomas D. Boone and constructed by Brett Morris. Sound is designed by Jennifer Daugherty.
A celebration of small-town life, GREATER TUNA, is definitely a comedy, many significant issues are portrayed but Irreverence is the rule of the day!
Our final performance will be on Halloween. Come dressed in your best backwoods-inspired costumes.
Tickets may be purchased at www.islandetc.org. Group rates are available for groups of ten or more. If interested, please call our box office, 409-762-3556.
Due to some language and some extreme stereotypes, Island ETC recommends this production of GREATER TUNA for ages 16 and up.
