This ‘winning crossover mystery’ (The Guardian) returns to Baker Street for a third Christmas following two sold out runs! This critically acclaimed production has been loved by London audiences, bringing ‘a wonderful festive play to get the entire family in the Christmas spirit’ (Lost in Theatreland) that ‘entertains from start to finish’ (Broadway World).

Three Christmases since the Reichenbach Falls, Sherlock Holmes has little appetite for mince pies or for solving crime. Wandering through Victorian London, he meets a grown-up and not-so-Tiny Tim Cratchit who implores him to investigate the mysterious death of his reformed benefactor, one Ebenezer Scrooge. 

An impossible murder, a threatening letter, and a missing diamond – it’s just enough to intrigue the great detective. But it’s a dark and treacherous Christmas Eve, and once again the night is haunted by the spirits of the past, present, and future. Using his powers of deduction, can Holmes overcome his own ghosts to crack the case?

Great theatre and performance

Jane Bastow

A lovely Christmas production with a difference. Cast excellent especially Watson, but maybe Sherlock himself was mis-cast.

Russell Hibberd

An absolute joy from start to finish for the festive season. A treat for our son who loves Sherlock Holmes’s and a anniversary treat. An intimate and family friendly experience. Five stars??

London Theatre Direct refused to change my ticket for a different date as I was not able to attend due to sickness, which I informed them about in advance.

David from North Yorkshire

I enjoyed this show although I think the ticket price was hefty considering the price of other theatre tickets for West End productions.

Janice

Not as good as expected. Rather muddled story. Cast rather amateurish. Disappointing.

Joan Palmer

Really enjoyed this, small theatre so we could hear and see everything.

Oscar Twomey

Really great production. The set was amazing. Great acting, characters and set changes despite limited stage hands.
