DEM Productions announce that A Sherlock Carol will return to London for a second year at Marylebone Theatre – just a stone’s throw from Holmes’ fictional base at 221B Baker Street itself – from 24 November 2023 – 7 January 2024.
The worlds of Charles Dickens and Sir Arthur Conan Doyle combine brilliantly in A Sherlock Carol, written and directed by Mark Shanahan, with Sherlock Holmes investigating the mysterious death of Ebenezer Scrooge.
Cast and creative team to be announced.
The critically acclaimed production has been loved by London audiences, bringing ‘a wonderful festive play to get the entire family in the Christmas spirit’ (Lost in Theatreland) that ‘entertains from start to finish’ (Broadway World).
Three Christmases since the famous confrontation with his nemesis Moriarty at the Reichenbach Falls, Sherlock Holmes has little appetite for mince pies or for solving crime. Wandering through Victorian London, he meets a grown-up and not-so-Tiny Tim who implores him to investigate the mysterious death of his reformed benefactor, one Ebenezer Scrooge.
An impossible murder, a threatening letter, and a missing diamond – it’s just enough to intrigue the great detective. But it’s a dark and treacherous Christmas Eve, and once again the night is haunted by the spirits of the past, present, and future. Using his powers of deduction, can Holmes overcome his own ghosts to crack the case?
Produced by DEM Productions, Fat Goose Productions, and Theatre Nerd Productions in association with Darcy Dobson Productions.
