The Flu Season is an unconventional tale that follows the relationship of a couple known simply as Man and Woman. They are patients in a mental hospital, attended by well-meaning Doctor and Nurse who are just as detached from reality as the patients. Literary devices-turned-characters, Prologue and Epilogue, guide the audience through the story, framing each scene and offering sharp commentary along the way.

The Flu Season

Youngstown Playhouse

A fast-paced spoof of the 1935 Alfred Hitchcock film of the same name, The 39 Steps, follows an “everyday man” who meets a woman, a spy. When he brings her home, she is murdered. The next thing he knows, an organization called “The 39 Steps” is hot on his trail and determined to find him. A blend of upbeat and inventive performances will have the audience on the edge of their seat in this mysterious comedy. The 39 Steps was last on stage at the Playhouse in 2012, this production will reunite 3 of the original 4 cast members as tribute to the 2012 production’s director, David Jendre.

The 39 Steps

Playwrights Ed Howard, Jaston Williams, and Joe Sears created A Tuna Christmas, a sequel to the hit-comedy Greater Tuna, on the set of a fictional town, Tuna, Texas. An unexplainable Christmas phantom spooks town citizens by vandalizing yards during its annual Christmas Yard Display Contest. Among other subplots are Stanley Bumiller attempting to end his probation and flee Tuna, Bertha Bumiller trying to keep her family together during Christmas and Joe Bob Lipsey’s attempt to save his Christmas production despite technical difficulties. An all-female cast will be returning to the stage from the Playhouse’s 2018 production of the show.
