What do you get when you cross Abbott and Costello, Monty Python, and Alfred Hitchcock? A hilariously funny murder mystery called “The 39 Steps”.
Richard Hannay, who is about 5 foot something and very good looking, is bored, but not for long. He stumbles into a world of spies that will turn his world upside down after he meets a seductive secret agent, Annabella Schmidt. She catches his eye, but winds up dead in his flat before he can do anything about it. Now he is on the run to clear his name and save the world.
Along the road to redemption, he falls into the arms of a beautiful young woman named Pamela who can’t decide if she loathes him, or loves him. Then, he finds himself falling for Margaret Crofter, the wife of a Scottish farmer. Her feelings are mutual, but will she decide to leave the life she knows for the unknown?
Spies, murder and love abound as four extremely talented actors take you on a fast paced ride in this family friendly show. Hold on to your hats as they portray every character in the classic 1935 Alfred Hitchcock film.
Will Hannay, who is so much better looking than he was before, get the girl? If so, which girl will he get? Will he save the day before the top secret secret information leaves the country and end the world as they know it?
Join us at the Baytown Little Theater for the answers to these questions and more as Rick Olsen plays Richard Hannay, Tabatha Poole plays Annabella Schmidt/Pamela/Margaret Crofter, and Katherine McKay and Edith A. Maldonado play EVERYONE else.
