Steps” the play I went. “ The 39 Steps” was a comical play that was over around the 60s.This play was very funny I enjoyed watching it. In this play they had actors play multiple parts in which made this really funny. Two of the actors went from being a performer on stage to cops to guys on the train.

Quite frankly‚ I was unsure of what to expect as the only other play I had gone to was a Broadway production in
