This play was amazing! It is exactly like the movie except it is hilarious because two actors switch roles constantly. I was skeptical about the role-switching comedy before I saw it, but I am so glad I did. The actors were so good! I would definitely see it again. One of the best parts was that they made references to different Hitchcock movies, which I thought was very creative.

Review: mapcap comedy that will leave you breathless ... by morsesline
and sore. Locations, costumes, and accents change with ease as four actors embody the cast of an entire Hitchcock film in this comedic tour-de-force. The "39 Steps" is not high art, it is the funniest thing to inhabit the theater district in years. Slapstick, sight-gags, and sheer comic invention drive this vehicle, in which I was glad to be along for the ride.
