Ken Ludwig's Baskerville: A Sherlock Holmes Mystery

a comedy by Ken Ludwig

Directors Rob Hunt & Stanlee Hodsden

 

Get your deerstalker cap on – the play’s afoot! Comedic genius Ken Ludwig (Lend Me a TenorMoon Over Buffalo) transforms Arthur Conan Doyle’s classic The Hound of the Baskervilles into a murderously funny adventure. Sherlock Holmes is on the case. The male heirs of the Baskerville line are being dispatched one by one. To find their ingenious killer, Holmes and Watson must brave the desolate moors before a family curse dooms its newest heir. Watch as our intrepid investigators try to escape a dizzying web of clues, silly accents, disguises, and deceit as five actors deftly portray more than forty characters. Does a wild hellhound prowl the moors of Devonshire? Can our heroes discover the truth in time? Join the fun and see how far from elementary the truth can be.

Now in its 25th year, Grant's performance brings Dickens’ timeless tale to life in a way you’ve never experienced before. From the kindly Bob Cratchit and sweet Tiny Tim to the miserly Ebenezer Scrooge and the ghostly visitors who transform his heart, Fitch masterfully portrays every character with vivid emotion and theatrical flair. Even if you know the story, you’ll discover scenes from the original novella rarely shown on screen.

Grant Fitch began developing his rendition of A Christmas Carol in 1997, and over the years, it has become a holiday tradition for audiences across the region. In addition to his storytelling work in schools and libraries, Fitch is a familiar face on local stages, having performed in The ForeignerMy Fair LadyYou’re a Good Man, Charlie BrownLittle Shop of HorrorsThe Drowsy Chaperone, and more.
