‘Tuna Christmas’ at Playhouse

Mollie Galano, left, and Denise Sculli share a moment in a scene from the Youngstown Playhouse’s production of “Tuna Christmas.” The comedy will begin a six-show, two-weekend run tonight in the Moyer Room, with performances at 7:30 p.m. on Fridays and Saturdays, and 2:30 p.m. on Sundays. Tickets are $15 ($12 for senior citizens and students); call 330-788-8739. Tonight’s performance is sold out. The cast also includes Joanna Andrei, Candace DiLullo and Jeanine Rees. Each actress plays multiple roles. Pat Foltz is the director. The play centers on the fictional town of Tuna, Texas, and its annual Christmas Yard Display Contest. Full of quirky characters, the play is an affectionate satire of small-town life in the South.
