Dennie Pierce and Ryan Bailey star in A Tuna Christmas.

A Tuna Christmas Opens Friday

It's Christmas in August at The Point Theatre as the hilarious comedy "A Tuna Christmas" opens Friday, Aug. 6 at 8:30 p.m. on the outdoor stage. The eccentric characters from last summer's "Greater Tuna" return to the stage in the yuletide sequel directed by David Cockerell. Written by Ed Howard, Joe Sears, and Jaston Williams, the play runs through August 21 and is The Point's last outdoor show of the season.

Guests attending opening night can get into the holiday spirit with the pre-show reception honoring "A Tuna Christmas" and the exhibition, "Visions of Santa," at 7:00 p.m. in the Gallery at The Point. The exhibit, by Billy Keen, features Santa portraits dating from 1974 and will be on display through Sept. 3.

Four actors, Ryan Bailey, Dennie Pierce, Justin Shotts, and Bob Straus portray all 24 citizens of Tuna, the fictional third-smallest town in Texas where "the Lion's club is too liberal and Patsy Cline never dies."

The play is a satirical look at small town Texas and contains exaggerated characterizations and situations appropriate for mature audiences.

"A Tuna Christmas" will be performed Friday-Sunday, Aug. 6-8; and Thursday-Saturday, Aug. 12-14 and Aug. 19-21 at 8:30 p.m. CART Services for the hearing impaired are available Saturday, Aug. 7. On Sunday, Aug. 8, all tickets are $8. For Point Season Pass holders, this is the last opportunity to use the passes this year.

Call the box office at 830-367-5121 to reserve seats for this holiday treat.
