SHERLOCK HOLMES AND THE HOUND OF THE BASKERVILLES

How can one show possibly contain so much action and adventure? Elementary, my dear!

The critically-acclaimed Pantaloons Theatre Company present a brand-new riff on the fiendishly famous case.

Will detective duo Holmes and Watson discover the deadly secret of the Baskerville family curse before it strikes again? Or are they barking up the wrong tree? Find out in this delightfully inventive show that will have you yelping with excitement and howling with laugher.

Features live music, audience interaction and more mystery than you can shake a magnifying glass at.

Stick that in your pipe and smoke it!

“A two-hour production of ingenuity, verve and wit celebrating the great detective’s adventures… But despite their cheekiness this remains a genuine homage to the stories… The company also has the best audience participation skills I have ever witnessed”
The Oxford Mail
