The Roundabout Theatre Company presents the Olivier Award-winning Hitchcockian thriller. Part espionage thriller and part slapstick comedy, the production features four actors who portray all the characters and all the action from the 1935 Alfred Hitchcock film, including the chase atop the Flying Scotsman train, a bi-plane crash and the death-defying finale in London's Palladium theatre.
