Pulitzer Prize & Tony Award® Winner!

Lost In Yonkers

Written by Neil Simon

Directed by Jeff Maynard

Feb 6 - 22, 2009

more info

Like many of Simon’s plays, Lost In Yonkers is drawn from his experiences growing up in New York City. Many critics consider this play to be Simon’s best work and the pinnacle of his career. Set during World War II, Arty and Jay are sent to live with their frightfully intimidating Grandma and sweet but mentally slow Aunt Bella. This masterwork is an unsentimental examination of lives in an oppressive household, climaxing with a dramatic confrontation between the bitter mother and lonely daughter. This is Neil Simon at his very best!
   

The first new Tuna show in over a decade!

West Coast Premiere!

Tuna Does Vegas

Written by Joe Sears & Jaston Williams

Apr 17 - May 3, 2009


Joe Sears and Jaston Williams return to La Mirada in their first new show in a decade! Polyester-clad Bertha Bumiller and gun-crazy Arles Struvie decide to head to Las Vegas to renew their wedding vows. But Arles announces the trip on his conservative radio talk show, and so nearly everyone in Tuna decides to head to Sin City as well. Petey Fisk from the Greater Tuna Humane Society goes on a mission to find out if the white jungle cats in Vegas are really albinos or just the victims of bad dye jobs, Inita and Helen from the Tastee Kreme take a spin as showgirls, Joe Bob goes on the Rush Limbaugh diet and Vera and Pearl battle over the slot machines. Find out what happens when an Elvis impersonator from the sequined white stretch-pants era gets double-booked with another Elvis impersonator from the “Blue Hawaii” period. Don’t miss the fun of Tuna Does Vegas!
   

TWO SHOWS ONLY!

Vicki Lawrence and Mama

A Two-Woman Show

May 9, 2009

2pm & 8pm

Emmy Award-winning comedienne Vicki Lawrence is one of television's most beloved personalities. Lawrence was plucked out of total obscurity as a high school senior to become part of the now-legendary cast of The Carol Burnett Show. At the ripe old age of 24 she created Thelma Harper, her most endearing character -- better known to fans as "Mama," the star of the sitcom Mama's Family. This performance with new cutting-edge, modern material features both Lawrence and "Mama" in a mixture of stand-up comedy, music, and observations about real life. Where the opinionated Mama is concerned, expect the unexpected!
