Customer Reviews of Greater Tuna
Step off Mama!! This video is the greatest,it will keep you laughing out loud.I cant wait to get the other ones.I dont know why HBO doesnt have these two wonderful performers on for a Tuna Special.They move along at a good pace becoming all the different people who live in Tuna and they are believeable as these characters.You dont have to be from the south to love this video but if you are {as i am} alot of it will ring true.This is a video i'm going to pass around in my family so they can laugh as much as i did.Its a keeper!!
Get your Kleenex - cause you'll laugh so hard you'll cry!
I saw this gargantuanly funny play during its first run in Atlanta, before it made its way to Broadway and before the actors achieved their fame. Joe Sears and Jaston Williams have definitely created one of the most hilarious shows ever to grace the boards. This video is a lived filmed version of one of their shows.
What makes this show funny is the characters and their believability. Why should this be seen as unique and deserve such high praise? Because all the characters in this play from Texas' third smallest town (Tuna, Texas) are played by two actors who manage to morph almost instantly into different costumes and personnas. In short, you've got two quick change artists performing some of the most spot on real performances you'll ever see on stage or film.
Sixteen characters are portrayed by these fine actors and some you will come to love and other you will lovingly hate. The show tells the story of the a couple of days of the interwoven lives of the citizens of Tuna, Texas. There's murder and intrigue, but it's all on the light side as we weave our way through this interesting world to discover who the murderer is.
You have Dee Dee Snavely, Bertha Buemiller, Aunt Pearl Burriss, Stanley and Charlene Beumiller, Vera Carp, Reverend Spikes, Petey Fisk, not to mention a pack of dogs and more than one "bitter pill". There's many many others that will have you rolling onto the floor off of your couch.
The show was apparently lengthened after pre-Broadway run, though no one who didn't see that version will know. If you're wise, you'll also check out the two other shows in the trilogy: "A Tuna Christmas" and "Red, White, and Tuna".
You'll laugh till you cry - I promise!
I wish I had written it...
I can quote every line from this work of Southern art. I taped it from HBO in 1985 and my precious video has been copied, loaned, went to Alabama and back, and most recently transferred to DVD. When a local little theater did a production of this show, I was crushed to find that they only wanted to audition for two men. I now own the trilogy and can only reccomend it as far as my Southern articulation will allow me to express. If you were raised in the South by Southern people, you will both laugh hysterically and shrink with horror. In short, you will identify so with this play that you will weep.
Have some field peas and rice and drink a glass of sweet ice tea. This video IS the South in all it's crazy, comforting, wonderful glow-ry!
