The eclectic band of citizens that make up this town are 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. This long-running play has been performed all over the U.S. to record-breaking audiences and will be performed at The Rio Theatre on Dec. 9-12, and 16-19 at 7:30 p.m. The Sunday matinees are at 2 p.m.
Adult groups of 10 or more will save $6 off regular box office adult ticket price of $18. For only $12, groups will receive the very best seats available by reserving in advance before tickets go on sale to the general public.
