The 39 Steps at The King's Theatre Edinburgh





What a fab night and what a brilliant and really inventive show. An hillarious play and I'm so impressed that they didn't miss out any of the bits I love, from one of my favourite novels/films of all time. It even has the Flying Scotsman chuffing its way over The Forth Bridge. Four actors play 139 roles, in an hour and a half, of total secret agenty entertainment. David Michaels' Richard Hanay cuts a fine dash and his lip is as stiff as as a proverbial stiff thing. See how many Hitchcock references you can spot along the way. (33/39)
