December 6-15, 2024 – Playhouse 2000 presents A Sherlock Carol, By Mark Shanahan. December 6 to 15 in the VK Garage Theater.
This brand-new mash-up of Charles Dickens and Arthur Conan Doyle, published just last year, sets a true Holmesian mystery in the latter days of Ebenezer Scrooge’s lifetime – the time foreseen by the “Ghost of Christmas Yet To Come” that has been altered for the good.
In our story, when a grown-up Tiny Tim asks the great sleuth to investigate the unusual circumstances around the death his benefactor, Scrooge, Holmes must use all his gifts to solve a “Dickens” of a mystery.
The New York Times called A Sherlock Carol a “clever, crowd-pleasing holiday comedy,” and TheaterMania credits the play with “joy that transfers to the audience.”
A Sherlock Carol is a fun and fascinating twist on two American icons that will make a great addition to your family’s Holiday season.
