Overview
HAVE A BLOODY GOOD TIME AT THE THEATER
Get ready for a hilarious romp with a fresh take on the legendary detectives! This fast-paced comedy from acclaimed playwright Kate Hamill puts a modern spin on the iconic crime-fighting duo, set in present-day Baker Street.
Holmes, a manic, razor-sharp genius, must entice Watson, a recuperating American divorcée, to tumble from one caper to the next. But when they encounter a supervillain who always seems to be one step ahead, the laughter intensifies and they dive into a rollicking murder mystery. Don’t miss out on this uproarious adventure filled with non-stop laughs and hijinks aplenty. This new twist on the beloved characters will leave you in stitches.
