Ryan H. Bailey
as Elmer Watkins, Leonard Childers, Hank Bumiller, Arles Struvie, Didi Snavely, Petey Fisk, Chad Hartford
a native of Park Forest, IL, has been living in Texas since 1996 and currently resides in Fredericksburg, TX with his wife Tommie & daughter Rachel, two strong, native Texas women, who have been unbelievably patient and inexplicably tolerant of his acting obsession and Yankee upbringing. This (and a love of character acting) prepared him perfectly for the first four times he had the honor of portraying the denizens of Tuna, assuming a variety of roles in two separate productions each of GREATER TUNA and A TUNA CHRISTMAS. Ryan would like to thank Jaston Williams for believing in him by offering this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, his wife and daughter for their love and understanding, his work family at Hill Country Memorial Hospital for the encouragement and leave of absence, his 3 cats, 2 dogs, and countless backyard birds for preparing him to play Petey Fisk, and his mom Priscilla for her undending support. Y'all sit back and enjoy the show!
Tim Leavon
as Ronnie Pert, Harold Dean Lattimer, Jody Bumiller, Stanley Bumiller, Charlene Bumiller, Phinas Blye, Vera Carp
is a Los Angeles based actor whom you will soon see starring in films such as YOU HAVE ARRIVED, HALLOWEEN HELL HOUSE, BAKERSFIELD, and MICAH AND NOEL SHARE AN APARTMENT. Whilst in LA he has recently completed the improv and comedic character training programs at both Upright Citizens Brigade and the legendary Groundlings Theatre. Being a native Alabamian, Tim is proud to bring that oft-misunderstood but incredibly human Southern sense of humor to the stage with GREATER TUNA, ya'll. He would like to thank Jaston and the rest of the cast and crew for this tremendous experience. Tim also sends his appreciation to Nick Crawford and Carl W. Stewart, who weren't a part of this production and yet are in so many ways. Whilst on this tour across the South, Tim would love nothing more than to have dinner with Dwight Yoakam. If you can make this happen, please let Tim know.
