This play is set in the fictional town of Tuna, Texas, the “third-smallest” town in the state. It is at once an affectionate comment on small-town, Southern life and attitudes but also a withering satire of same. The play is notable in that three men play the entire cast of over twenty eccentric characters of both genders and various ages.
