Anchorage Community Theatre Presents THE 39 STEPS, Closes7/31

Anchorage Community Theatre, in partnership with Midnight Sun Theatre, will present The 39 Steps, based on the classic Alfred Hitchcock movie, from July 8 - 31. The play just finished a run on Broadway of over 1100 performances and won two Tony Awards. The play's concept is to include the entirety of the film nearly verbatim onstage, but with a cast of four. One actor plays the hero, an actress plays three women with whom he has romantic entanglements, and two other actors play every other character: heroes, villains, men, women, children and even the occasional inanimate object! See our 30 second commercial on YouTube.

Shows are Thursday, Friday and Saturday evenings at 7 PM and Sunday afternoons at 3 PM. Get your tickets online or call 868-4913. Tickets are $15 for adults, $13 for seniors/military/students and $11 for kids under 12. ACT season ticket holders get $2 off. There will be a "pay what you can" preview performance on thisThursday July 7 at 7 PM.
