PATRICK BARLOW is a prominent English actor, comedian, and playwright, perhaps best known for his Olivier Award-winning and long-running stage adaptation of The 39 Steps, based on the novel by John Buchan and the movie by Alfred Hitchcock. His work is characterized by a “low-fi” theatrical style that often uses a small cast to portray dozens of characters in epic, fast-paced stories. Besides his version of Lew Wallace’s Ben Hur, his Olivier-nominated adaptation of A Christmas Carol has played off-Broadway and in London’s West End, while his four-person adaptation of The 39 Steps has played in more than 40 countries worldwide, winning Olivier, Helpmann, Moliere and Tony Awards and making Patrick the most performed playwright in America for 2012-’13. Most recently, his rewriting of John Milton’s Comus has played to critical acclaim at Shakespeare’s Globe Theatre. He is also celebrated in the UK for his two-man theatre company, National Theatre of Brent, as well as numerous screenwriting credits.
JOHN BUCHAN (1875–1940) was a Scottish novelist, historian, British Army officer, and Unionist politician who served as Governor General of Canada. He began writing poetry and prose, fiction and non-fiction as a youth, publishing his first novel in 1895 and ultimately writing more than 100 books, of which the best known is The Thirty-Nine Steps. After attending Glasgow and Oxford universities, he practiced as a barrister. In 1901, he served as a private secretary to Lord Milner in southern Africa towards the end of the Boer War. He returned to England in 1903, continued as a barrister and journalist and then left the Bar when he joined Thomas Nelson and Sons publishers in 1907. During the First World War, he was, among other activities, Director of Information in 1917 and later Head of Intelligence at the newly formed Ministry of Information. He was elected Member of Parliament for the Combined Scottish Universities in 1927. In 1935, King George V appointed Buchan as Governor General of Canada and two months later raised him to the peerage as Baron Tweedsmuir. He occupied the post until his death in 1940. Buchan promoted Canadian unity and helped strengthen the sovereignty of Canada constitutionally and culturally. He received a state funeral in Canada before his ashes were returned to the United Kingdom.
