The 39 StepsThe 39 Steps                                           Sponsored by: Buckys Casino

April 12 – 14, 19 – 21  7:30pm  15 & 21 2pm

By Patrick Barlow  Directed by Linda Miller

The play's concept calls for the entirety of the 1935 adventure filmThe 39 Steps to be performed nearly verbatim onstage, but with a cast of four. One actor plays the hero, Richard Hannay, an actress plays the three women with whom he has romantic entanglements, and two other actors play every other character in the show: heroes, villains, men, women, children and even the occasional inanimate object. This often requires lightning fast quick changes and occasionally for them to play multiple characters at once. Thus the film's serious spy story is played mainly for laughs, and the script is full of allusions to (and puns on the titles of) other Alfred Hitchcock films, including Rear Window, Psycho and North by Northwest

 

Auditions: February 6 & 7
