Baskerville
by Ken Ludwig
Based on Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s classic The Hound of the Baskervilles.
On Stage
March 21 – April 7, 2024
Based on Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s classic The Hound of the Baskervilles, the tale is transformed into a fresh and fast-paced comedy starring the world’s favorite detective duo. Legendary sleuth Sherlock Holmes is on the case with trusty sidekick Watson as they try to solve the mystery of the Baskerville family curse before a new heir is doomed. Our intrepid investigators are prowling the desolate moors of Devonshire – chasing a howling hellhound with a nose for trouble!
In the style of The 39 Steps and Around the World in Eighty Days, five actors play 40+ characters for a witty and wildly imaginative whirlwind of a whodunit. The truth is anything but elementary… This dizzy delight will keep you guessing – and laughing – until the final curtain falls. A murder mystery this much fun should be a crime!
