Drury Lane Theatre has announced that Gavin Lee will lead the cast of The 39 Steps! The Chicago theatre continues its 2023 season with The 39 Steps, an original concept of Simon Corble and Nobby Dimon, adapted by Patrick Barlow from the novel by John Buchan and the movie by Alfred Hitchcock.

Mix a Hitchcock masterpiece with a dash of farce and you have The 39 Steps, a fast-paced whodunit. Packed with nonstop laughs, over 100 characters played by four actors, The 39 Steps is an unforgettable evening of riotous performances and inventive stagecraft.
