CLAREMORE, Okla. – Rogers State University's Student Theatre Organization will present its fall production of the comedy "Greater Tuna" Nov. 12-14 at the Baird Performance Studio.
Set in Texas' third-smallest town, "Greater Tuna" is a send-up of small-town morals and mores. The show brings to life a colorful cast of eccentric characters, including Arles Struvie, Thurston Wheelis, Aunt Pearl, Petey Fisk, Phineas Blye and the Rev. Spikes.
Performances begin at 7:07 p.m. each night. Seating is general admission on a first-come, first-served basis and is limited to about 115 guests per night.
Tickets are $5 for RSU students with a valid student ID and $7 for general admission. Only cash will be accepted.
An American Sign Language interpreter will be provided during the Friday, Nov. 13, performance, and members of the Deaf and hard of hearing community are invited to attend. To reserve seats for the interpreted performance, email Jacob Price at sdjacobprice2@student.rsu.edu.
The Student Theatre Organization is made up of RSU students interested in all aspects of theatrical production, including set design, lighting, sound, costume design, acting and playwriting. Each semester, members work together to bring live theatre to the campus and surrounding community. RSU theatre students also attend the annual Kennedy Center American College Theatre Festival to compete for awards and scholarships.
The organization aims to enrich the campus and local community through plays, monologues, theatrical enactments and staged readings.
