I think it all started with the tuna sandwich, and then, on the road, gearing up for New York, Nick [Kroll] and John [Mulaney] had the idea of having a tuna puppet, which became Tony Tuna, and their friend Cammi Upton designed that and did a great job.
Alex TimbersI'm not sure if the audience can smell tuna but the special guest each show definitely can.
Alex TimbersI think we live in an era without a predictable career path. Everybodys doing more, doing more at the same time, doing more faster. As such, individual projects can have wildly different developmental trajectories.
Alex TimbersI worked on it [ Too Much Tuna] for a little bit downtown and it was a great experience. I couldn't believe how enthusiastic the audience was for it. It was just extraordinary. It felt like you were at a rock concert, which was just unusual for shows at Cherry Lane, which are usually intimate plays about big ideas, you know.
