On Monday, September 20th, THE 39 STEPS will celebrate its 1000th performance in New York City. This milestone is especially unique since THE 39 STEPS played almost 800 performances on Broadway in three different theaters, making it the longest running Broadway play in almost a decade. Currently, the show is in its new home Off-Broadway at New World Stages. Adapted by Patrick Barlow and directed by Maria Aitken, THE 39 STEPS is based on an original concept by Simon Corble and Nobby Dimon and on the book by John Buchan.
On Monday, September 20th, the talk back series continues with novelist
Tom Santopietro who will host a special post-show talk back with the cast of THE 39 STEPS. Tom has written a book about legendary Hitchcock blonde
Doris Day. The talkback is open to all ticket holders and will take place immediately following the evening performance.
Also on Monday and throughout September, the 3rd annual Hitchcock month continues with audience giveaways and special prizes.
Alfred Hitchcock's THE 39 STEPS is currently playing at the New World Stages/ Stage 1 (340 West 50th Street, between 8th and 9th Avenues).
THE 39 STEPS features a cast of four actors who, against all odds, breathlessly and hilariously reenact all of the characters, locations and famous scenes in Hitchcock's 1935 film thriller with just a few props and a lot of theatrical ingenuity and split second quick changes.
The cast features
John Behlmann as
Richard Hannay,
Cameron Folmar as Man #2,
Jamie Jackson as Man #1 and
Kate MacCluggage as Annabella Schmidt/Pamela/Margaret.
Set and costume design is by
Peter McKintosh, lighting design is by
