Sherlock Holmes’ most famous mystery receives a brilliantly funny makeover in this fast-paced spoof packed with mystery, mayhem and theatrical ingenuity.
When Sir Charles Baskerville is found dead on the fog-shrouded moors of Devon, rumours are abound of a terrifying supernatural hound that has haunted the Baskerville family for generations. With danger lurking around every corner, Holmes and Watson are called upon to unravel the truth behind the legend before another Baskerville falls victim to the curse.
This inventive comedy combines classic detective drama with hilarious comedy and plenty of surprises along the way.
Will Holmes solve the case? Is there really a monstrous hound stalking the moors? And can Watson keep up?
Join Witney Dramatic Society for an evening of mystery, laughter and theatrical magic in this award-winning comedy that puts a wonderfully absurd spin on a beloved Sherlock Holmes classic.
See you there!
