’39 Steps’ to comedy

Alfred Hitchcock’s counterespionage comedy 39 Steps comes to the Manship Theatre this week with an ensemble cast giving two performances of the Tony Award-winning stage adaptation. A complex farce involving mistaken identities, assassinations, spies and romantic entanglements played by a cast of four who switch crazily between multiple characters, this play is sure to split your sides. Monday and Tuesday, at 7:30 p.m. Tickets are $45 at manshiptheatre.org.
