And the Mystery of the Governor’s Nose

from two short stories by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle
We are delighted to welcome back Jenny Wren Productions and her talented team to perform in the grounds of Grittleton House this summer, come and join us for a fun filled action packed evening.

Extra! Extra! Painting stolen from distinguished art gallery!
Holmes and Watson are called upon to investigate the disappearance of a legendary painting, The Governor’s Nose. But all is not as elementary as it seems. As mysterious forces – and an assortment of shady characters – work to undermine our heroes, they need all the wit, guile, and deduction capabilities in their arsenal, along with the help of the steadfast Mrs Hudson and Detective “Always-One-Step-Behind” Lestrade. The hour grows late. The paint has dried. The game is afoot.
Sherlock Holmes and the Mystery of the Governor’s Nose is a comic new play, inspired by The Naval Treaty and The Man with the Twisted Lip, with apologies to Sir Arthur Conan Doyle.
The event is held in the grounds of Grittleton House, with the house making the most stunning backdrop for this wonderful performance. Come prepared for an outdoor performance, bring your own chair, picnic, and drinks.
Performance: 6.30pm,
Gates Open: 5.30pm for picnics, bring your own chairs / rugs
