Four actors. 150 characters. One love story-road trip-murder mystery-spy plot to be unraveled.
September 25- October 12, 2025
Accused of murder and on the run in the Highlands, Richard Hannay must clear his name by proving the existence of a devious spy ring! But, of course, clearing your name is never easy, especially when there are antics and capers afoot.
The 39 Steps is a delightful, four-person, slapstick adaptation of a Hitchcock classic perfect for fans of the Pink Panther movies and the Reduced Shakespeare Company. “It’s no mystery why this affectionate parody is still delighting audiences,” says London Theatre magazine!
