Fall Play at SHS
Sherlock's First Adventure: A Two-Act Comedy-Mystery by Craig Sodaro
Sherlock Holmes has been a beloved character in literature for over 100 years, but recently, he's made a resurgence in film and TV. SHS is making a contribution to Holmes' popularity with the show Sherlock's First Adventure: A Two-Act Comedy-Mystery by Craig Sodaro. This play features a young Sherlock, solving his first crime.
Sherlock is a student at Butterworth Academy outside London, England, where several students--the children of wealthy families--go missing. Ransom notes and a strange psychic appear, drawing Sherlock and some of the other well-known characters Sir Arthur Conan Doyle created, like Irene Adler, Constable Bing, James Moriarty, and of course, John Watson, into a mystery.
