About the play:
Based on Arthur Conan Doyle’s story “A Naval Treaty,” a friend of Doctor Watson is in trouble and begs for the help of the great Sherlock Holmes. Unfortunately, Holmes is only a figment of Dr. Watson’s imagination. Forced to hire a small time actor to portray the detective, Watson struggles to rein in his over-the-top performance. Still, the two manage, not only to solve the crime but change both their fortunes for the better.
