Synopsis:
Watson: The Last Great Tale of the Legendary Sherlock Holmes tells the story of a good man trapped in the shadow of a great man. Funny, moving, and theatrically inventive, this high-energy play balances witty comedy and dramatic mystery to recount the last great tale of the legendary Sherlock Holmes as seen through the eyes of his trusted friend and colleague, Dr. John H. Watson. From pantomime to Punch and Judy and with the theatrical ingenuity of Broadway's The 39 Steps, Watson tells a grand tale of heroes and villains that will captivate your audience until the very end!
