Book Description

February 4, 2010
This is Patrick Barlow's Olivier Award winning stage adaptation, based on John Buchan's gripping whodunit - memorably filmed by Alfred Hitchcock in 1935 - is now in its fourth year at the Criterion Theatre in the West End. Nothing has been cut from this hilarious version of Britain's most spell-binding thriller - legendary scenes include the chase on the Flying Scotsman, the escape on the Forth Bridge, the first theatrical bi-plane crash ever staged and the death-defying (or nearly!) finale at the London Palladium! With four actors playing a minimum of one hundred and thirty-nine roles, it's the most astonishing theatrical tour de force of the year.

Even Hitchcock is Laughing! October 20, 2011
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
The entire movie, revised as a comedy, with four cast members playing 130 roles. It was one of the funniest theatrical experiences in my 73 years. Those 73 years left my hearing behind so I bought the script to catch up up on the dialog I missed. Now I have to find someone doing the play so I can see it again. Great stuff be it written or acted.
