Due To Strong Ticket Sales Seattle Rep Extends THE 39 STEPS Thru 10/24
Due to strong advance sales, Seattle Repertory Theatre is adding five dates to the run of "The 39 Steps." The show opens in previews on Sept. 25 and will now run through Oct. 24. The new dates are Oct. 21, 22, 23 and 24 at 7:30 p.m. and Oct. 24 at 2 p.m.
The play opens Seattle Rep's 2009-10 season. In this "absurdly enjoyable, gleefully theatrical" production (The New York Times), four actors-aided by scores of costumes, a team of dressers, and a minimal set-play 150 characters and hilariously bring to life every death-defying scene from Alfred Hitchcock's movie, the primary inspiration for the play.
"The 39 Steps" has been on Broadway for 20 months, earning two Tony Awards and rave reviews. La Jolla Playhouse launched the national tour Aug. 11, and the production will move to Seattle Rep with the same cast.
The story is the classic tale of the man who knew too much, written as both a send-up and homage to Hitchcock's thrillers. A beautiful spy leaks a deadly secret to a man she's just met. With that, our hero suddenly finds himself embroiled in a high-speed chase across England and Scotland, dodging police, charming ladies, and uncovering clues at every turn.
Performance Details: Performances of "The 39 Steps" are at 7:30 p.m., Wednesday through Sunday, with 2 p.m. matinees on most Saturday and Sundays. A captioned performance will be held Thursday, Oct. 1 at 7:30 p.m. Post-play discussions will be held after the performances on Sunday, Oct. 4 at 2 p.m.; Thursday, Oct. 8 at 7:30 p.m. and Sunday, Oct. 11 at 2 p.m. There is an audio-described performance on Saturday, Oct. 17 at 2 p.m. and an American Sign Language (ASL)-interpreted performance on Sunday, Oct. 18 at 2 p.m.
