TheatreWorks Silicon Valley Brings Hitchcock Story To Life
Alfred Hitchcock's "The 39 Steps" features four actors playing 139 roles.
PALO ALTO, CA — TheatreWorks Silicon Valley continues its 50th anniversary season with the Olivier Award-winning comedy "The 39 Steps" running from Aug. 21 to Sept. 15.
This hilarious, high-speed spoof of Alfred Hitchcock’s silver-screen classic hurtles a notorious fugitive and a breathtaking blonde from a London music hall to Scotland’s most remote highlands crawling with devious spies. With a mysteriously murdered agent, a wicked plot to destroy England and a race against the clock to stop it, this brilliantly funny show is a tribute to the master’s greatest films.
Directed by Leslie Martinson, "The 39 Steps" features four fearless actors playing 139 roles, stretching the boundaries of theatrical invention. The riotous comedy will be presented from Aug. 21 to Sept. 15 at the Mountain View Center for the Performing Arts. The arts center is located at 500 Castro Street in Mountain View.
