Pulled into a web of intrigue and deceit, Richard Hannay must evade shadowy organisations, femmes fatales, corrupt constables and frisky farmers’ wives. Twisted into knots by skulduggery and suspicion, Hannay must solve the mystery of the 39 steps and save the motherland before it’s too late. Strap yourself in for this parody as four actors perform 139 roles in 100 minutes at breakneck speed. It’s Hitchcock made hilarious!

A ripping yarn of thrills, intrigue and unexpected romance. Can Richard Hannay rise to the occasion?

What a wonderful way to end our time in the Pymble Players theatre at Pymble - A SOLD OUT Season of The 39 Steps!

In the outback, several stories cross paths on the road, in service stations, in caravan parks and while hitchhiking. Some of the travellers are trying blindly to find their destinations while others are trying to find a highway, any highway, to anywhere. But as their lives interweave and disperse and plans go awry, each of them discovers that the road they are travelling may not always take them where they expected, and if they are lucky, the destination may be more wonderful than any of them could ever have dreamed.

‘’Life isn’t always made up of dead, straight roads’’.

Congratulations to the Cast and Crew for a successful season!

In 1965 there doesn’t seem to be too much going on in the ranks of the South Bendigo Communist Party. Even the presence of young recruit Martin Porter has done little to inject life into the weekly grind. While Martin’s mum frets about his inexplicable abandonment of the church, short hair and the army reserve, George and Eli Tassekis welcome him into their family like a second son. But Martin is an ASIO spy and he’s about to get his new friends into serious trouble. Based on a true story from country Victoria, The Spook reveals the world of activity involving the Communist Party and ASIO in Australian society during the post war decades.

“Just a little chat... about the state of the world... There might be something you can do for your country.”

Congratulations to the Cast and Crew for a successful season!
