Ocala Civic Theatre to Present Ken Ludwigs BASKERVILLE This Spring

Sherlock and Watson are on the case in the murder-mystery comedy BASKERVILLE, live on stage March 21 - April 7 at Ocala Civic Theatre.

In this dizzy delight starring the iconic detective duo, our intrepid investigators and masterminds of mayhem prowl the desolate moors of Devonshire in 1890s England, chasing a howling hellhound with a nose for trouble. Legendary sleuth Sherlock Holmes (James Ray Taylor III) and his trusty sidekick Dr. Watson (Brian Creary) seek to solve the mystery of the Baskerville family curse before a new heir is doomed to die.

The truth is anything but elementary in this witty and wildly imaginative whirlwind of a whodunit, where three additional actors (Trafton Crandall, Christian Gonzales, Megan Taylor) play 40+ characters between them. Based on Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's classic The Hound of the Baskervilles, Tony Award-winning playwright Ken Ludwig transforms the tale into a fresh and fast-paced comedy. Marvelously madcap, a murder mystery this much fun should be a crime!
