« Thrilling, humorous, full of head-scratching crimes and dazzling deduction in the face of cunning evil, Sherlock Holmes takes theatregoers on a heart-stopping adventure through the opium dens, the muddy docklands and the gritty backstreets of London during the turn of the century in a gripping new tale ripped from the original of Conan Doyle's classic stories. The production has a quirky sensibility that meshes Victorian London with modern nods to Steampunk. »
