Press Reviews

"Playwright Jeffrey Hatcher takes Arthur Conan Doyle's famous characters and drops them into a story inspired by Robert Louis Stevenson's novella The Suicide Club to create a thrilling comic mystery. The whodunit mystery comes complete with a wow-I-didn't-see-that-coming ending.“ —Arizona Daily Star.   ”Hatcher has a winner with SHERLOCK HOLMES. It's intelligent, clever, teasing, seductively engaging and just plain fun.“ —Tucson Weekly.   ”A darkly comic new take on the archetypal detective."

— Arizona Republic
