A thrilling sequel to “The 39 Steps”, Hannay Stands Fast sees our dashing hero, Richard Hannay back in the fray on a mission to thwart a new and deadly threat to his beloved England.
Engaged on this top-secret case by MI5, Hannay makes his way down to Cornwall to infiltrate a secretive organisation and learn their dastardly plans. Can he save the day to keep the nation safe for another day?
Hannay Stands Fast, like its predecessor, is taken on by four actors playing dozens of characters – 53 to be precise!
Set in various locations created through quick and innovative uses of trunks, crates, suitcases, ladders, you name it! A rip-roaring comedy for the whole family to enjoy – another of John Buchan’s classic Hannay stories re-told for the stage through laughs, derring-do and utter chaos!
This is a UK professional premiere of this title on it’s first-ever UK tour!
