Preview audiences have been thoroughly entertained by the new production at Arts Theatre Cronulla, The 39 Steps, a parody play adapted from the 1915 novel by John Buchan and the 1935 film by Alfred Hitchcock. The play shares the plot and characters with the film, and there are entertaining Hitchcock references throughout. However, as Director Cheryl Butler notes in the program, “if you think you’re going to see Alfred Hitchcock’s 39 Steps, oops!”
