The 39 Steps (Gallery Players)
About the show
The Gallery Players revives this madcap theatrical spoof in which four actors portray more than 150 zany characters, turning Hitchcock's 1935 spy thriller into a fast-paced romp. More…
Richard Hannay lives a boring life. Then he meets a mysterious woman with a thick accent who claims to be a spy. When he takes her home, she is murdered. Soon, a mysterious organization called 'The 39 Steps' is hot on his trail. Hannay must race to solve the mystery while trying to clear his name. An outrageous comedic adventure featuring an onstage plane crash, handcuffs, missing fingers, and some good old-fashioned romance.
