A GOOD OLD-FASHIONED MURDER MYSTERY...OF SORTS

Mix a Hitchcock masterpiece with a juicy spy novel, add a dash of Monty Python, and you have THE 39 STEPS, a fast-paced whodunit for anyone who loves the magic of theatre! This 2-time Tony and Drama Desk Award-winning treat is packed with nonstop laughs, over 150 zany characters (played by a ridiculously talented cast of 4), an on-stage plane crash, handcuffs, missing fingers and some good old-fashioned romance!

Having received critical acclaim when it first opened in 2008, this joyously wacky four-person show has endured cast changes, runs in three different Broadway theaters and a recession, outlasting pretty much every other straight play without the benefit of elaborate sets or well-known stars.  The production most recently moved off-Broadway, to New World Stages.  According to actor Jeffrey Kuhn, “[The 39 Steps] has restored my faith in the simple power of the theater.”

Afterward enjoy L'Allegria. Listed by the New York Times among "The Best of Pre-Theatre," L'Allegria features traditional Northern Italian cuisine.  "The prix-fixe offerings are mind-boggling" and the New York cheesecake is infamous.
