The Hound of the Baskervilles

About the Show

A mysterious murder, an ancient curse and a legendary detective… Join us on the wild moors of Dartmoor and prepare for cryptic chaos with just three actors playing all the characters in a brand-new comedy version of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s most celebrated Sherlock Holmes story. When Sir Charles Baskerville is found dead with a look of horror still on his face and beside him the paw prints of a gigantic beast, Sherlock Holmes and Dr Watson are summoned from Baker Street to investigate the crime and discover the truth about the Hound of the Baskervilles. The show takes place outside in The Watermill Theatre gardens. Seats will be uncovered, and performances will go ahead whatever the weather, so bring a sun hat, warm clothes and waterproofs to enjoy the experience of watching the mystery unfold in the garden. You may also wish to bring a cushion.
