Synopsis:
Inspired by Hitchcock's classic tale and performed as a live period radio play, this romantic thriller is a fast-paced ride through the signature world of the Master of Suspense. Richard Hannay is visiting 1930s London when he meets annabElla Smith, who is on the run from foreign agents, after a disturbance at a music hall. Later that night, annabElla is murdered and Hannay must then try to break the spy ring and prove his innocence. From an epic train chase to a feisty love interest, Hannay has his work cut out for him as he searches for the truth about the 39 Steps. (This play can also be performed as part of the full-length play Vintage Hitchcock: a Live Radio Play.)
