The 39 Steps starts Richard Hannay - an innocent man on the run, as he evades the police in order to save the country from a ring of murderous spies. Four actors take on 130 roles to bring Alfred Hitchcock’s epic cinematic masterpiece to the stage. 

This page features the costume prop; Annabella's Knife. Made by myself, this backpiece was used to kill international spy Annabella Schmitt.
