A Hitchcock thread, a spy-novel setup and a dash of Monty Python are the ingredients listed for The 39 Steps, a fast-paced whodunnit due at Burgess Hill Theatre Club on Saturday 27 June 2026.
The Visit Brighton event listing gives the price as free and names the venue as Burgess Hill Theatre Club, 103 Church Walk, Burgess Hill, RH15 9BQ, United Kingdom. A start time and end time are not shown in the source listing, so readers should treat the date, venue and free-entry status as the confirmed planning details.
For local arts readers scanning the same date, there is also a separate 27 June theatre listing for Circus Calamitous in Brighton, while improv audiences may want to compare it with ShortForMania in Brighton.
The confirmed details for 27 June
The event is listed as a Theatre Performance under the title The 39 Steps. The confirmed date is Saturday 27 June 2026, with the performance location given as Burgess Hill Theatre Club.
The source description frames the show as a mixture of a Hitchcock masterpiece, a juicy spy novel and Monty Python-style comedy. That points to a brisk, comic mystery rather than a straight thriller, with the core appeal built around pace, suspense and comic misdirection.
The listed price is free. No booking instruction is included in the available event text, and the source does not provide audience age guidance, accessibility information, transport notes or food and stall details.
Why this version of The 39 Steps fits a local night out
The 39 Steps has a clear hook for people who want theatre with momentum: the source calls it a fast-paced whodunnit. That matters for readers choosing between local events on a busy Saturday, because it signals a show built around movement, mistaken identity, intrigue and comedy rather than a slower dramatic piece.
The Burgess Hill venue also makes the listing relevant beyond central Brighton. With the address placed at Church Walk in Burgess Hill, the event is best treated as a local Mid Sussex theatre option appearing through the Visit Brighton events feed.
There are several details readers may normally expect that are not available in the source listing. The time is not shown, and neither are booking arrangements or organiser details. The most useful way to plan from the verified information is to note the free price, the date and the exact venue, then check the event listing or venue channels before setting out.
