Holmes and Watson and The Curious Case of the Masqued Magician
15 February @ 7.00pm
About Holmes and Watson and The Curious Case of the Masqued Magician
An entirely new Sherlock Holmes story.
The play is set in 1906, as electricity and new transportation systems (the Underground) are revolutionising daily life, and the population are in thrall to superstar Music Hall Magicians and celebrity Spiritualists.
The play opens in the Persian Hall in Picadilly, where the Masqued Magician is performing his nightly show. It’s the talk of London. Mid show, he vanishes, magically, totally, and, seemingly, forever.
Has he been kidnapped? Is he in hiding? Has he been murdered? Who, actually, is behind the Masque?
Performed and devised by two of Britain’s most respected stage magicians, the show combines everything you would expect from a Sherlock Holmes mystery.
