Mix a Hitchcock masterpiece with a dash of farce and you have The 39 Steps, a fast-paced whodunit for anyone who loves the magic of theatre. Packed with nonstop laughs and over 150 characters played by four actors, The 39 Steps is an unforgettable evening of riotous performances and inventive stagecraft that is sure to delight.
This show had a lot of moving sequences and callbacks to other genre movies and we used movie posters from the 1930’s to establish style and palette. We were able to map the entire set, which used almost 100 different surfaces over two projectors, to neatly project on all of the trim pieces.
