After two sold-out festive seasons in 2022 and 2023, A Sherlock Carol will return to Marylebone Theatre from 29 November 2024 - 5 January 2025, with increased seating capacity due to demand.
The worlds of Charles Dickens and Sir Arthur Conan Doyle combine brilliantly in A Sherlock Carol, which sees Sherlock Holmes investigating the mysterious death of Ebenezer Scrooge.
Artistic Director of the venue, Alexander J Gifford said: “A Sherlock Carol is an immensely popular production, which has sold out for two years in a row. We are thrilled to be adding new rows of seats in anticipation of big crowds for Christmas and look forward to having our favourite local detective back in the building.”
Cast and creative team details are to be announced.
A Sherlock Carol is written and directed by Mark Shanahan and features set design by Tony nominee Anna Louizos, lighting by Obie-winner Rui Rita, with original music and sound design by Tony nominee John Gromada.
Three Christmases since the famous confrontation with his nemesis Moriarty at the Reichenbach Falls, Sherlock Holmes has little appetite for mince pies or for solving crime. Wandering through Victorian London, he meets a grown-up and not-so-Tiny Tim who implores him to investigate the mysterious death of his reformed benefactor, one Ebenezer Scrooge.
An impossible murder, a threatening letter, and a missing diamond - it’s just enough to intrigue the great detective. But it’s a dark and treacherous Christmas Eve, and once again the night is haunted by the spirits of the past, present, and future. Using his powers of deduction, can Holmes overcome his own ghosts to crack the case?
