Playing Up Theatre Company

Written by Patrick Barlow. Presented by Playing Up.

Enjoy the thrilling adventures of the handsome and heroic Richard Hannnay, who, complete with British stiff-upper-lip, obligatory pencil moustache and a dash of derring-do, encounters dastardly murders, double-crossing secret agents, beautiful women and an evil mastermind as he tries to solve the mystery of what, exactly, are The 39 Steps?

This wonderfully inventive and gripping comedy thriller features just four actors who play 139 roles in 100 minutes of fast-paced fun and thrilling action.

The play won the Olivier Award and the What’s On Stage Award for Best Comedy in 2007.
