The game’s afoot in this hilarious thriller – Holmes and Watson must crack the mystery of “The Hound of the Baskervilles” before a family curse dooms its newest heir.
Who killed Sir Charles Baskerville? Is there any truth to the legend of a supernatural bloodthirsty hound? This sounds like a case for the world’s most famous detective! From the award-winning mastermind of mayhem, Ken Ludwig comes a murderously funny adventure that takes us from Baker Street to the haunted moors. Join Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson as they try to escape a dizzying web of clues, disguises, and deceit as five actors deftly portray more than 40 characters in a “perfect mix of slapstick and thrills.” (Theatermania).
“…the chase is on and with much joy.” – DC Metro Theatre Arts
“Ingeniously funny … will keep you guessing until the curtain call.” —Broadwayworld
Notes: Ken Ludwig’s Baskerville: A Sherlock Holmes Mystery is a thrilling whodunit based on Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s classic crime novel. The comedic mystery includes talk of murder and mayhem, but there is no graphic violence and just mild adult language. Patrons with specific content concerns should contact the Box Office with direct questions.
