Broad as Nature

Welcome to The Road to Baker Street, an online diary of my research for Idle Muse Theatre Company’s upcoming production of Sherlock Holmes: The Final Adventure, adapted by Steven Dietz (based on the original 1899 play by William Gillette and Arthur Conan Doyle). Sherlock is scheduled to open in August of 2010, but evoking the Victorian world Holmes and company will inhabit on the stage is actually a journey that begins months before the first rehearsal or the play is even cast. Over the coming months, I will endeavor to share some the of experiences and insights we discover along the way.
