Alfred Hitchcock’s The 39 Steps, adapted by Patrick Barlow.
Alfred Hitchcock’s classic spy thriller, The 39 Steps, brilliantly and hilariously recreated for the stage as the smash hit Olivier and Tony Award Winning Comedy, is back out on a UK tour after nearly 10 years in London’s West End.
The 39 Steps took Broadway by storm, played in 39 different countries across the globe, and delighted over 3 million people worldwide with its quintessentially plucky spirit and dashing sense of fun.
Follow the incredible adventures of our handsome hero Richard Hannay, complete with stiff-upper-lip, British gung-ho and pencil moustache as he encounters dastardly murders, double-crossing secret agents, and, of course, devastatingly beautiful women.
This wonderfully inventive and gripping comedy thriller features four fearless actors, playing 139 roles in 100 minutes of fast-paced fun and thrilling action.
From an original concept by Simon Corble & Nobby Dimon
