The 39 Steps

A fast-paced staged adaptation of The 39 Steps, reimagined inside a 1930s film studio with ensemble performance and meta-theatrical storytelling.

This staged adaptation of The 39 Steps reimagines Patrick Barlow’s riotous thriller within the world of a 1930s film studio, where cinema and theatre collide. The production blends physical theatre and ensemble work, with fluid role-switching and visible stagecraft that highlights both the story and the storytelling.
