About
Mix a Hitchcock masterpiece with a juicy spy novel, add a dash of Monty Python and you have The 39 Steps, a fast-paced whodunit for anyone who loves the magic of theatre.
This Olivier Award-winning treat is packed with non-stop laughs, some good old-fashioned romance and a whole host of colourful characters (played by a ridiculously talented cast of four). Iconic scenes include the chase on the Flying Scotsman, the first ever theatrical biplane crash and a death-defying (well nearly) finale.
Reviews of The 39 Steps:
“Theatre at its finest... Absurdly enjoyable! This gleefully theatrical riff on Hitchcock's film is fast and frothy, performed by a cast of four that seems like a cast of thousands” The New York Times
“An exciting, vibrant play that is immensely funny” The Yorkshire Times
“Hilariously, spiffingly good, racy and pacy” The Scarborough News
“Inventive, fast-moving, clever, breath-taking” The Yorkshire Post
