Auckland Theater Company Presents THE 39 STEPS 2/12-3/7

By:

Auckland Theatre Company in association with the Court Theatre presents The Thirty-Nine Steps by John Buchan, adapted by Ross Gumbley.

12 February - 07 March 2009

They say there are no more heroes. They haven't met Richard Hannay yet.

Director: Ross Gumbley
Starring: Lisa Chappell, Stephen Papps, Cameron Rhodes
Design: Tony Geddes, Elizabeth Whiting, Brad Gledhill

Four fearless actors play 139 roles in 100 madcap minutes in this inventive adaptation of John Buchan's classic British spy thriller.

Our handsome all-action hero Richard Hannay, complete with stiff upper lip and a miraculous knack of getting himself out of sticky situations, encounters dastardly murders, doublecrossing secret agents and, of course, devastatingly beautiful women, in a race against time to save the British Empire.

Buchan's THE THIRTY-NINE STEPS has inspired numerous adaptations including Alfred Hitchcock's acclaimed 1935 film.

"Won over the audience completely." The Press
"Theatrical flair." Theatreview

Running time: TBA
