Synopsis: The 39 Steps is a comedy thriller that centers on the character Richard Hannay, who is on the run from authorities, as well as the all but unknown organization, The 39 Steps. The journey to unveiling this organization leads him to an array of different characters who don’t always have the best of intentions. This fast-paced show is filled with intrigue, romance, and mystery that is bound to keep you on the edge of your seat.
Character Breakdown:
Richard Hannay: male-identifying, any race/ethnicity, 25-40: An upstanding Englishmen who leads a boring life until he finds himself trying to bring down The 39 Steps. Has never been adventurous, so he finds himself caught off guard when he becomes on the run.
Annabella/Pamela/Margaret: female-identifying, any race/ethnicity, 25-35: Plays all the female characters in the show. This includes Annabella who is a spy attempting to bring down The 39 Steps, Pamela who is caught up in Hannay’s adventure, and Margaret who dreams of a life out of the country and in the city.
Clown 1 and Clown 2: any gender, any race/ethnicity, any age: These two characters play every other character in the show including heroes, villains, and even inanimate objects. Must be versatile in order to play distinct characters. Special talents or skills preferred, but not required.
