The 39 Steps is a fast-paced farce that parodies the Hitchcock spy story of the same name. Four ridiculously talented deaf actors portray over 150 zany characters in American Sign Language while four insanely gifted voice actors simultaneously perform the same lines in English; making this performance accessible to both Deaf and hearing audiences.
In The 39 Steps, a man bored with his life meets a woman with a thick accent who says she’s a spy and asks for his help. When he takes her home, she is murdered. Soon, a mysterious organization called “The 39 Steps” is hot on the mans’ trail in a nationwide manhunt that climaxes in a death-defying finale! A riotous blend of virtuoso performances and wildly inventive stagecraft, The 39 Steps makes for an unforgettable evening.
