Sherlock Holmes at Regent’s Park Open Air Theatre

Sherlock Holmes at Regent’s Park Open Air Theatre is an atmospheric, madcap funny and visually inventive mystery, using the open-air setting, clever staging and brisk comic energy to strong effect. The pace can be demanding, but Joshua James and Jyuddah Jaymes lead a lively ensemble through a case full of smoke, secrets and theatrical invention.
