Sound & Fury always guarantee a good time, both for themselves and their audience.
Sound & Fury's Sherlock Holmes, an hour long show of not quite controlled lunacy, whisked us from various fandoms and fictional characters by lightening changes in costume, accents and, most importantly, acting. At the beginning, the guys announce that they are not theatre, but I would disagree. Sound & Fury have an amazing knack of producing what theatre originally was, pure entertainment.
There's a strong streak of improvisation, and an even stronger streak of hilarity. Triple entendres abound, as do some dodgy sight and sound gags, and we loved them all. Audience participation is encouraged, which adds to the atmosphere of fun intimacy, where everyone leaves feeling like they've been at a private party. These three men produced multiple characters to tell a Sherlock Holmes mystery, but definitely not in the Conan Doyle sense.
