‘A Tuna Christmas’ cast leaves Ranger show-goers with a Texas-sized laugh or two — and a few salty satirical jokes

Northwestern theater students hosted their first production of the fall semester, “A Tuna Christmas,” in Herod Hall Sept. 30 — Oct. 2. The play, a comedic story about the happenings in the fictional tiny town of Tuna, Texas, is set during the 1980s. The play follows the spring performance of “Greater Tuna,” and some characters continued their roles this semester.
