The cast consists of Sean McCall of Marengo and T.J. Besler of Manchester who will portray all the unforgettable residents of Tuna Texas. McCall, artistic director at The Old Creamery says playing 10 characters in 2 hours can be a bit of a challenge. "It's also a lot of fun and we invite everyone to come out and meet the good folks of Tuna Texas. Marquetta Senters has done a wonderful job with costumes, making each character really unforgettable - to say the least," he said.
