Shreveport Little Theatre is excited to announce auditions for the upcoming production of “The 39 Steps.” The production will be directed by Dr. Ray Scott Crawford and will be performed September 5-14.

“The 39 Steps” is a fast-paced, comedic adaptation of Alfred Hitchcock’s 1935 thriller, blended with the imaginative style of Monty Python. The play follows the story of Richard Hannay, an ordinary man who finds himself entangled in a web of espionage and intrigue after a chance encounter with a mysterious woman. From London music halls to the Scottish Highlands, the adventure unfolds through inventive staging, clever theatricality, and nonstop humor.

Audition date is Saturday, July 5, at 2pm. Actors interested in auditioning should prepare a comic monologue and be ready to read from the script. Auditions will be held at the Shreveport Little Theatre, 812 Margaret Place. 

Rehearsals for the production will begin in late July. Depending on the show’s popularity, additional performances may be added. Actors are asked to keep the weekend of September 19-21 open for possible extension performances.

If anyone is unable to attend auditions, sign up for the waitlist portion of the audition and submit a link (either DropBox or Google Drive) of material for the director to view. These can be shared on the audition form.

This production promises to be a high-energy, creatively staged experience. Roles are open to performers of all backgrounds, and those with strong comedic instincts, physical agility, and quick character transformations are especially encouraged to audition.
