A HOLMES & WATSON MAGIC SHOW

An entirely new Sherlock Holmes story. The play is set in 1906, as electricity and new transportation systems (the Underground) are revolutionising daily life, and the population are in thrall to superstar Music Hall Magicians and celebrity Spiritualists.

The play opens in the Persian Hall in Piccadilly where the Masked Magician is performing his nightly show.

It's the talk of London. In mid-show, he vanishes, magically, totally and seemingly, forever.

Has he been kidnapped? Is he in hiding? Has he been murdered? Who is behind the Mask?

MEANWHILE IN BAKER STREET...

After a month Scotland Yard have hit a dead end and call in the world's greatest detective.

Criss-crossing London, travelling by the exciting new Bakerloo line, Holmes (with Watson in tow) investigates the crime scene.

Holmes becomes convinced that only a Magician could have carried out this extraordinary effect. They split up to track down the Masked Magician's associates, rivals and 'friends'.

In the process they visit four performing magicians - seeing their acts, checking their alibis and weighing their evidence. Can the great detective and his faithful companion, Dr Watson, unravel the mystery surrounding the Masked Magician's disappearance, before it’s too late!?
