ABOUT THE SHOW
Two great classics that go great together. Extra dashes of laughter and intrigue make this cup of yuletide cheer a perfect holiday treat for all.
Moriarity is as dead as a doornail.
Sherlock Holmes is depressed.
Without his number one adversary, what’s the point of it all?
Enter a grown-up Tiny Tim and the mysterious death of everyone’s favorite humbug and it’s a festive literary mash-up with surprises around every corner.
This fresh and charming reimagining of two of the most beloved literary characters is a Dickens of a yuletide detective story that’s as “good as gold.”
Six actors transform before your eyes in a playful, clever, and joyous holiday comedy that is “elementary” for a festive outing sure to delight audiences of all ages.
