A Snow Bound Train . . .
Kansas City, Mo. (October 28, 2016) . . . may hide a stone-cold killer! "A Christmas Stalking", presented by The Mystery Train, is on track to add some excitement to your holiday season. This murder-mystery comedy opens on November 11 and runs through New Year's Eve with performances on Friday and Saturday evenings at the Crowne Plaza Hotel downtown Kansas City, Mo. Petra Allen, Jessica Whitfield, Claudia Copping and Lauren Lindsey star. If playing detective (or just trying to elude one) is on your holiday wish list, come join us!
A Christmas Stalking -- Three women are trapped on a train during the blizzard of 1918, reminiscing about Christmases past, when they are faced with another disaster …. a murder! Can they find the killer before he strikes again? Before they even have a chance to fill their stockings, the game is afoot!
Murder mystery dinner theater is presented as a live interactive game, but not all dinner companions are who they seem: one of them may be an accomplice to murder—or even the murderer himself! The evening begins with role-playing at 6:30 pm, followed by a marvelous meal and a mystery-comedy show at 7 pm. Shows are held at the Crowne Plaza Hotel, 1301 Wyandotte Street, Kansas City, Mo. Tickets are $69.00, and include dinner, show, and food service gratuity. A cash bar is available.
Advance reservations are required and can be made by calling (816) 813-9654, or tickets may be ordered online at www.kcmysterytrain.com (service charges apply). Visit our website for menus and a complete schedule.
The Mystery Train is also great for holiday parties, large and small.

EnArts announces The Toymaker and Me
EnArts
The Toymaker and Me by Marc Wayne: Nov 17-18, 22-

The Toymaker and Me tells the moving story of a
precocious orphan girl and a grumpy old toymaker

Toymaker and Me is family-friendly and appropriate
for all ages. It may be especially appealing to
kids, as it focuses on a 12-year-old orphan girl
who in the process of discovering her unique
giftedness (her "spark") helps Mr. Baker, a grumpy
old toymaker, rediscover the joy and meaning of
life.

The 39 Steps
24 October 2016
PRESS RELEASE
For immediate release
ESU Theatre presents a comic adaptation of a
Hitchcock masterpiece.
Emporia State University Theatre will present
The 39 Steps, adapted by Patrick Barlow from
the novel of the same name by John Buchan. The
show features Richard Hannay (Gabriel Diaz-
Serrano, freshman, Olathe), a Scotsman living a
completely ordinary and even boring life—until
he meets Pamela (Bailey B. Carter, senior,
Topeka), a mysterious woman claiming to be a
spy. After spending the night with her, he
awakens the next morning to find her murdered.
He soon finds himself on the run from a
mysterious organization known as "The 39
Steps." Hannay chases across Britain in order
to save himself and get back to his ordinary
life.
The show features over 150 characters despite
its small cast of 4. Most of those characters
are played by two clowns (Cameron Reynolds,
senior, Louisburg and Ryan Howerton, senior,
Haysville). Combining elements from classic spy
novels, gags from Monty Python, and the
dramatic elements of Alfred Hitchcock, this
show is filled with thrills, laughs, and a
death-defying finale.
The 39 Steps is under the direction of Theresa
Mitchell, who began working at ESU in 1999.
"I am most excited to create a pants-on-fire
paced spy thriller with a HUGE theatrical twist
with a fantastic student driven company."
Mitchell says. This will be the 30th play she
has directed at ESU.
Mitchell will have the assistance of stage
manager Tyler Lang (senior, Wichita) and
assistant stage manager Andrew Ralston
(sophomore, Topeka). Nancy J. Pontius is
designing the set and lighting, and Evan
Eisenbarth (senior, Cassoday) will design the
many costumes with help from Costumer Amanda
Dura. Assistant Professor Dan Matisa serves the
production as Dialect coach. Chris Lohkamp will
serve as both technical director and sound
designer.
The 39 Steps runs November 30th – December 3rd
at 7:30 pm. All performances will be in the
Karl C. Bruder Theatre in King Hall, located at
1301 Market Street. Tickets can be reserved at
the university box office or by calling 620-
341-6378.

awkward beginning, Josh is forced to do "adult" things

our own time.

To his shock, his wish is granted. After an understandably
awkward beginning, Josh is forced to do "adult" things

for, and learns we must all grow up at our own pace, in
our own time.
