Event Description "Clever, very funny, imaginative and brilliantly acted" (The Guardian).
"A joyous version of the Hitchcock classic" (Sunday Times)
Adapted by Patrick Barlow. From an original concept by Simon Corble & Nobby Dimon.
John Buchan's THE 39 STEPS, memorably filmed by Alfred Hitchcock in 1935, continues its sensational run at the Criterion Theatre.
Literally nothing has been cut from this HILARIOUS and SPECTACULAR version of Britain's most spell-binding thriller – legendary scenes include THE CHASE ON THE FLYING SCOTSMAN, THE ESCAPE ON THE FORTH BRIDGE, THE FIRST THEATRICAL BI–PLANE CRASH EVER STAGED, THE RATHER PROVOCATIVE ‘BEDROOM’ SEQUENCE and the death-defying (or nearly!) FINALE AT THE LONDON PALLADIUM!
With four actors playing a minimum of ONE HUNDRED AND THIRTY NINE ROLES, THE 39 STEPS proves to be the most astonishing THEATRICAL TOUR DE FORCE of this, or any other, decade.
