A CASE FOR THE WHOLE FAMILY

APRIL 4 – MAY 4

Hubbard Theatre

Directed by Eleanor Holdridge

Embark on a thrilling adventure with Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson as they unravel the mystery of the Baskervilles with wit, charm, and suspense. Todd Waite’s Sherlock brings humor to the classic whodunit in this madcap mystery. Join them on a journey through the foggy moors of Devonshire, where every clue and twist keeps you guessing until the final curtain call.

This special engagement marks Todd Waite’s farewell performance as a member of the Resident Acting Company, making it a must-see for fans and theatergoers alike.

This production is approximately 2 hours and 15 minutes long, including one intermission.

“It’s not only fun, it’s laugh out loud funny. It is also an outstanding production.”
