The Basin Theatre Group

The 39 Steps

A Great comedy to banish Winter’s Chills

IN association with Highway One Theatre, The Basin Theatre is presenting The 39 Steps.

Mix a Hitchcock masterpiece with a juicy spy novel, throw in a bit of Monty Python and you have The 39 Steps – a whodunnit for everyone who loves the magic of live theatre. When a man with a boring life meets an exotic woman with a thick accent who tells him she is a spy, her mysterious death causes his life to spiral out of control. A shady organisation called the 39 Steps is hot on his trail and pursues him relentlessly in a nationwide manhunt with a thrilling death-defying climax.

Season: Thursday August 10 to Sunday August 20.

The Basin Theatre offers a complete, all-inclusive package with free parking, free programs, complimentary sherries on arrival, interval tea and coffee, and a light snack after the show. All included in the price of your ticket,

The Company’s licensed bar is open before the show, with a decent selection of alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages. And during the winter weather to come, the Company’s lovely new extreme courtyard and seating will further embrace your visit to the special theatre in the Hills.

Bookings: 1300 784 668.
