Character Descriptions:
Seeking a company of four actors who play all of the roles in THE 39 STEPS. All actors must be superb technicians who can create many different characters and utilize many different accents.

Richard Hannay: Mid 30s/early 40s Male. An attractive, world-traveled and world-weary Englishman in the manner of Ronald Coleman/Robert Donat. An everyman caught up, by circumstance, in mystery, murder and espionage.

Annabella Schmidt/Margaret/Pamela: Mid 20s/mid 30s Female. Will portray a mysterious and seductive European spy, a simple Scottish farmer's wife and a plucky, resourceful and intrepid young English woman.

Clowns 1 and 2: Two versatile actors capable of playing a variety of specific roles with a variety of British accents, all grounded in reality and honesty. They are not clowns in the circus sense, but in the style of the English Music Hall/Vaudeville quick change acts, with split-second timing and inventiveness.
