“Of Trains N’ Things,” a musical comedy, takes 
place during the depression, about 1936, when 
the main mode of transportation from city to city
was trains.   The show opens in a Hobo Camp with many of 
the Hobos warming themselves before their campfire.  While
down and out, they demonstrate hope that has not been 
banished.
 
As Morning begins, the scene takes us from the 
Hobos, who rode the rails, to the average 
passengers in a busy train station and 
what befalls them.  We hear music with railroad 
journey themes and the renowned Rockerettes make
 their appearance. We also meet such characters as 
Murgatroid Fishfoot, Sylvester Burkwrinkle, Hortense 
Headtogether, The Cake Lady, and Georgia Girl.
 
The Second Act is a victorious political victory 
party in a posh hotel because Senator Phil A 
Buster has won his election after a grueling 
train-riding, caboose-speaking campaign.  Here 
you see the extreme elite of society at their 
funniest.  The ritzy well-to-do are enjoying life
and you will hear no sad songs here!  Life is 
great, and wouldn’t you know it, the Rockerettes
join in the celebration!  We meet such characters
as Miss Hoi Polloi, Notta Cloo, Carrie A Tune, 
Mrs. I Noah Tall  and Mrs. Loan Lee.

Shirley Hawkes is our very accomplished pianist, our 
rhythmic drummer, Charlie Wetzelberger, and our talented 
guitarist, Bob Cogen.  Our Producer is Richard Ray and the 
Young Hearts participants in the Cast are all over 60 years of
age and our troupe, started 46 years ago by former 
International Adagio Dancer and WHAS Performer, Eloise 
Terry, has been entertaining for free those 46 years.  Don’t 
miss this zany, fun-filled entertaining musical comedy.
 
We hope you will keep these performances in mind 
when planning your upcoming activities. Young 
Hearts Theatre productions are ticketless/
donations welcome to help defray the production 
costs. As a non-profit Kentucky Corporation, and 
IRS designated 501(c)(3) charitable organization,
tax-deductible donations are heartily 
encouraged. and greatly appreciated – 
we cannot do it without you.
