    Due to popular demand, B Street Theatre is pleased to reopen The 39 Steps in their 110-seat theatre for a very limited special engagement.

    Sometimes the best comedy comes from being dead serious. We learned from Monty Python that no matter how silly those fellows were in word or action they seldom cracked a smile. That is a fundamental reason why The 39 Steps is a raucously funny evening in the theatre: Four actors are deadly earnest, even when the action is frantically ridiculous. Laughter is inevitable. They're villains, cops, politicians, stage hands, streams, fences. You name it, they take it on with comic verve. It is a showcase of physical stagecraft.

    The 39 Steps is based on a 1935 film by Alfred Hitchcock, and if you pay close attention you find most of Hitchcock's films referenced, often in groan-inducing puns or allusions. And just as Hitch often made cameo appearances in his films, he pops up at least once in a shadow play that portrays Hannay's escape from bumbling officers.
