SecondStory Repertory Presents THE 39 STEPS

By:

The 39 Steps is a tale of murder, mystery and intrigue. In this whodunit, despondent protagonist Richard Hannay flees from the authorities after being wrongfully accused of a heinous murder he did not commit.

Richard's quest to reveal the true villain takes him through a series of twists, turns and improbable adventures as well as a very unexpected romance. The audience will be on The Edge of its seat in this fast paced comedy to see if our hero is able to clear his name and get the girl. The 39 Steps is told with only four actors, three of whom portray between 100-150 different characters. For all murder mystery fans The 39 Steps will delight in its unabashed theatricality and celebration of the genre. A 2008 two-time Tony Award Winning play, The 39 Steps also received the 2007 Laurence Olivier Award Winner for Best New Comedy and had smashingly successful run on Broadway & London's West End.

 

Directed by Teresa Thuman, the show runs October 7 through October 30. 

Friday and Saturday performances are at 8pm. Sunday matinees on October 16, 23, & 30 at 2pm. Tickets are $25 for General, $20 for Students, Educators, Seniors over 65 and Military $10 for TPS Members with membership card.
