You can use PyInstaller (http://pyinstaller.hpcf.upr.edu). PyInstaller easily
builds a single executable with everything inside it. It also optionally
compresses everything with UPX (http://upx.sourceforge.net/) so to reduce the
size at the maximum.

There are also other choices that can be made. For instance, wxWidgets is
*HUGE*.
