  3. The Hound of the Baskervilles


adapt: David Pichette, R. Hamilton Wright from Sir Arthur Conan Doyle; dir: Craig Hall.

They're baaaaack! Take three actors, sixteen characters, a few fake beards, plenty of cross-dressing, and a bonechilling curse—and you get this uproariously funny take on The Hound of the Baskervilles, a comedic treat for the whole family to enjoy. The same shameless actors and director who made this production a huge hit during its 2009 American premiere at S&Co. are back for another wild and wooly romp. Don't miss Sherlock and Watson as they head 'snout first' into the mysterious Scottish moors to investigate a suspicious death.

Jonathan Croy returns as the bumbling Dr. Watson, Josh Aaron McCabe as the handsome Sherlock Holmes (and the frighteningly attractive flamenco dancer Cecile), and Ryan Winkles as Sir Henry Baskerville, the coddled heir to the Baskerville fortune. A hilarious send-up of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's classic novel, The Hound of the Baskervilles will leave you howling with laughter.
