Ensemble Theatre’s Hit Comedy: The 39 Steps
Extended through February 26

Ensemble Theatre Company of Santa Barbara is pleased to announce that the current show The 39 Steps will be extended due to popular demand. This zany, family friendly, comedy the Santa Barbara Independent called “a great night of theatre,” will now play through Sunday, February 26, 2012.

Richard Hannay, a debonair gentleman, is at a London theatre when a fight breaks out and shots are fired. In the ensuing panic, he finds himself on the run and caught in the middle of a tale of espionage. Merging a spy thriller with farcical comedy and clever theatrical invention, The 39 Steps is an engaging, fast-paced whodunit. A cast of 4 plays over 140 characters in this hilarious farce that owes as much to Monty Python as it does to Alfred Hitchcock.

Additional performances of The 39 Steps will be presented Wednesday, February 22 through Saturday, February 25 at 8pm and Sunday, February 26 at 2 pm. Tickets for these added performances are now on sale at the Ensemble box office at 805-965-5400 or at ensembletheatre.com.
