A Hitchcock masterpiece. A juicy spy novel. A colossal dash of Monty Python. Shake it all up… It's The 39 Steps! In 1930s London, the dashing Richard Hannay begins his evening at the theatre, and leaves a fugitive on the run. Caught in a maze of espionage, near-death escapes, and flirtatious entanglements, our hero careens from a London music hall to Scotland's most remote highlands in search of a plausible alibi and the true identity of the killer. Will our debonair hero solve the mystery and save Britain from a den of devious spies?!? A cast of 4 actors plays over 150 characters in this Tony award-winning, laugh-out-loud, lightning-paced whodunit!
The 39 Steps plays from January 11 through February 8. All performances on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday start at 7:30 pm. Sunday matinee performances start at 2:00 pm.
