The ever-audacious Blackeyed Theatre have excellent form when it comes to Sherlock Holmes, having previously scored successes with stage adaptations of two novels featuring the famous fictional detective: The Sign Of Four and The Valley Of Fear. 

This latest foray into the world of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s Victorian supersleuth sees them creating a show that’s a little bit different from either of those predecessors. 

“We’ve pulled together a handful of wonderful short stories,” explains writer & director Nick Lane, “and interwoven them into one singular, thrilling tale featuring Holmes’ most feared but little-seen adversary, Professor Moriarty. It’s been fun capturing the pace, the spirit, and the character of Doyle’s original adventures. Our hope is that, like the stories themselves, The Hunt For Moriarty will keep audiences gripped - and guessing - along with the great detective himself, right to the last.”
