History Mystery Train

HISTORY MYSTERY TRAIN

Three veteran Vigilantes reunite to create a little leap into the past when television was as young as we were and every local TV station beamed its own version of Howdy Doody or Captain Kangaroo. This particular small town station offers the History Mystery Train with a conductor who welcomes you to the baggage crew.

The show is on the skids, however, and not even the Spud Queen’s Potato Ballet can raise the ratings. Integral to the show’s salvation are a hopped-up cowboy star, a drowsy sidekick, Horsefly Hannah (the scourge of Montana) and a seed potato. The audience joins in as all peanut galleries must of course, and there’s lots of singing and carrying on.

The semi-vast cast of characters are created by seasoned actors Rhonda Smith, John Hosking, and alumni Thomas Q. Morris who also writes and directs. Morris is well known for his previous VTC productions “WUF” and “The Clark and Lewis Show” and does not disappoint with this sketch comedy marvel!
