Richmond Theatre : Hound of The Baskervilles OLD EVENT
By Sir Arthur Conan Doyle
Adapted for the stage by Clive Francis
A bloodcurdling howl is heard across the moors. A blanket of images and sounds envelopes the audience, bringing the atmospheric terror of Dartmoor, the eerie gothic hall and the ghostly hound to life as you have never seen before!
Successfully combining the power of live performance with revolutionary theatrical techniques, this brand new production of the classic Sherlock Holmes tale intensifies Conan Doyle's masterful storytelling skill. A visual feast of jaw-dropping projected animation terrifies and unsettles, thrills and entertains.
This adaptation of one of the greatest thrillers ever written stars Peter Egan (Ever Decreasing Circles, Noises Off) as Sherlock Holmes and Philip Franks (Heartbeat, Journey's End) as his loyal assistant Dr Watson. It is directed by Robin Herford(renowned for his expert creation of The Woman in Black) and designed by Tim Bird (Evening Standard and Olivier Award winner for his amazing projections in Sunday in the Park with George).
