Promethean Theatre Ensemble Presents A STUDY IN SCARLET, 5/3-6/1
Promethean Theatre Ensemble presents a world premier adaptation of A Study in Scarlet, the novella that introduced the world to the beloved Sherlock Holmes. A Study in Scarlet will be adapted and directed by Paul Edwards. The company will feature PTE Ensemble Members David Fink, Nick Lake, and Brian Pastor. Guest artists will include Elaine Carlson, Jared Dennis, Richard Furin, Kevin Gladish, EVan Johnson, Ed Kuffert, Drew Longo, Cathlyn Melvin, and Dave Skvarla.
Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's first Sherlock Holmes story, published in Beeton's Christmas Annual in 1887, introduces the "consulting detective" and his sidekick to each other, and to an adoring fan base that still thrives today. In this inaugural tale, Holmes and Watson pursue a mysterious murderer who writes, in blood, the word "Rache" (German for "revenge") on the wall above his victims.
A Study in Scarlet will run Friday, May 3 through Saturday, June 1 at the Athenaeum Theatre, 2936 N. Southport Ave., Chicago. Performances will take place Thursday through Saturday at 8:00pm and Sunday at 2pm. Opening night will be Saturday, May 4 at 8:00pm (the Friday, May 3 performance is a preview). For the convenience of the press, there is an additional performance on Tuesday, May 7 at 7:00pm. Tickets are $22 and can be purchased through athenaueumtheatre.org or by calling 773.935.6875.
