Here's what you'll get:

You'll see a world premiere of an adaptation of Arthur Conan Doyle's THE BLUE CARBUNCLE performed as a staged reading by professional actors.

You'll enter and be offered some hot spiced cider. Then you'll be seated in a 90 seat concert hall, where opera singer Christine Sofiane will sing some of Holmes' favorite composers and a medley of Christmas tunes. Next, host and curator Les Klinger will do a short lecture, This is followed by the staged reading - a thirty minute dramatization of Conan Doyle's famous Christmas Sherlock Holmes story -The Blue Carbuncle.

Following this you'll share refreshments with the cast.

This is the second production of the Sherlock Holmes in Brentwood playreading series and the first sold out and had a repeat performance. Because of the holidays, this play will be one time only.
