The 39 Steps Hitchcock Meets Monty Python Spies, Murder, Comedy and Romance to Launch Stage's Mainstage Season PRESS RELEASE FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Monday, October 11, 2010 CONTACT: Patrick Finlon, Marketing Director 315-443-2636 or [email protected] The 39 Steps Hitchcock Meets Monty Python Spies, Murder, Comedy and Romance to Launch Stage's Mainstage Season Adapted by Patrick Barlow From the novel by John Buchan From the movie of Alfred Hitchcock Directed by Peter Amster ARCHBOLD THEATRE at SYRACUSE STAGE Running Dates: October 20 – November 7 Pay-What-You-Can Dress Rehearsal: Tuesday, October 19 at 7:30 p.m. Press Opening: Friday, October 22 at 8 p.m. (Syracuse, NY)—Gunshots, murder, and dastardly plots; seductive spies, thrilling chases and serious flirtation; they’re all part of this rollicking comedy/mystery and two-time Tony Award-winning Broadway hit. Based on the 1935 classic film by Alfred Hitchcock, The 39 Steps follows Richard Hannay as he sets out for a night of music hall entertainment only to be ensnared in a dangerous attempt to smuggle top-secret information out of the country. Four actors and ingenious and inventive staging prove that anything movies can do, theatre can do more hilariously. Said The New York Times, “Absurdly enjoyable! This gleefully theatrical riff on Hitchcock’s film is fast and frothy, performed by a cast of four that seems like a cast of thousands.” The 39 Steps will run October 20 through November 7 at Syracuse Stage, marking the start of Stage’s 2010-2011 mainstage season. Sponsors are M&T Bank and Pomco Group. Media sponsors are WAER and WCNY. Syracuse Stage season sponsors are The Post-Standard and 1 Time Warner Cable. Tickets for The 39 Steps range $16-$48, available at 315-443-3275 or www.SyracuseStage.org. The 39 Steps premiered in London in 2006, won a 2007 Laurence Olivier Award in 2007 for Best New Comedy, and won two Tony Awards when it transferred to Broadway in 2008. Now playing off-Broadway at the New World Stages, the play features four actors performing 150 different roles. The 39 Steps at Syracuse Stage is a co-production with Cleveland Play House, where it received critical acclaim earlier this fall. Returning to Syracuse Stage is Director Peter Amster, director of Stage’s This Wonderful Life and The Fantasticks, as well as actor Rob Johansen whose Syracuse Stage credits include Mortimer in The Fantasticks, Jim Casy in The Grapes of Wrath, and the Butler in The Unexpected Guest. Other cast members include Joe Foust with extensive Chicago credits (Steppenwolf Theatre Company, Goodman Theatre, Chicago Shakespeare Theatre, among others); Sarah Nealis who has performed at major regional theatres across the country; and Nick Sandy (as the protagonist Richard Hannay) with extensive Chicago credits including a Jeff Award and several Jeff Award nominations. Said Director Peter Amster: “If you’re looking for a rollicking good time and laughing until your sides hurt, this is for you. It’s Hitchcock meets Monty Python. The actors are not only very accomplished actors, they are shameless clowns, everyone one of them.” One hour before every public performance, an actor from the production will be available in Stage’s lobby for Prologue, an intimate pre-show conversation. Prologue is supported by the Grandma Brown Foundation. LOCAL CONNECTION: HITCHCOCK IN SYRACUSE This October, the Syracuse International Film Festival (SYRFILMFEST’10) and Syracuse Stage are proud to present Hitchcock in Syracuse, a series of events related to the work of the great filmmaker Alfred Hitchcock.

  • Non-Equity Jeff Award Nominations Rescinded for the Hypocrites
    Editor’s Note: The complete list of Non-Equity Jeff Awards nominees follows this release and is also available on-line in the News and Events section at www.jeffawards.org. Non-Equity Jeff Award Nominations Rescinded for The Hypocrites Additional Nominations Announced Saturday, April 25, 2015 - Chicago, IL. Early Friday, April 24, 2015, Sean Graney, who recently returned to Chicago to resume his post as Artistic Director of The Hypocrites, informed the Joseph Jefferson Awards Committee that he just learned the theater company had been operating under an Equity CAT-N contract for the duration of the 2014-2015 Non-Equity season. Over the past year, requests for judging its productions were made to the Non-Equity Wing without the committee having knowledge of the company’s Equity status. The Jeff Committee was aware that two of the productions had Equity performers (as indicated in the program); however, the committee has now confirmed that these were not guest contracts. As such, the company’s productions are not eligible for consideration in the Non- Equity Wing, and all related Non-Equity Jeff Award nominations have been rescinded. The productions in question will be shifted to the Equity Wing for awards consideration during its current season, which commenced on August 1, 2014 and will end on July 30, 2015. A revised listing of nominees follows for the 2014-2015 Non-Equity Jeff Awards. 2015 NON-EQUITY JEFF AWARD NOMINEES PRODUCTION - PLAY "Exit Strategy" - Jackalope Theatre Company "The Jungle" - Oracle Productions "Men Should Weep" - Griffin Theatre Company "Monstrous Regiment" - Lifeline Theatre "Ruined" - Eclipse Theatre Company" PRODUCTION - MUSICAL "Assassins" - Kokandy Productions "The Full Monty" - Kokandy Productions "Jesus Christ Superstar" - Theo Ubique Cabaret Theatre "Titanic" - Griffin Theatre Company "The Wild Party" - Bailiwick Chicago PRODUCTION - REVUE "Always..
