The cast of Sherlock Holmes – The Comedy can’t wait to welcome audiences to Guilsfield Community Centre later this month for a night of laughs and classic detective capers.

The one-off performance takes place on Saturday, March 21, promising a playful spin on the world’s most famous sleuth, complete with quick-fire gags, larger-than-life characters and plenty of tongue-in-cheek mystery.

Priced at £20, tickets include a Hog Roast, vegan or vegetarian meal, turning the evening into a full social occasion as well as a trip to the theatre.

Doors will open at 7pm, with scene one beginning at 7.30pm and followed by the Hog Roast, then scene two starting at approximately 8.30pm before dessert is served.

Audiences are invited to bring their own bottle to enjoy with the show and meal, while tea and coffee will be available to purchase at the venue.

With food, drink and comedy all under one roof, organisers are hoping to create a lively village night out.

The production offers a chance to see Sherlock and his world reimagined for a community stage, with performers clearly relishing the opportunity to send up familiar tropes and iconic scenes.

On top of the comedy and food, the evening will also feature a raffle and quiz prizes, adding extra fun and a chance for audience members to go home with more than just a good story.

Whether you are a die-hard Holmes fan or just in the mood for a fun evening with friends, the mix of theatre, supper and side entertainment aims to have something for everyone.
