Many of Conan Doyle’s beloved characters are included in this play. In addition to Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson, the production includes Mrs. Hudson, Inspector Jones of Scotland Yard. All cast members, except Dr. Watson, play multiple secondary roles for a total of 18 characters plus “Toby the Wonderdog.”

While Sherlock Holmes: The Sign of the Four (SH: So4) is being presented as a "lively stage reading," the actors are costumed, move about and bring the play to life.

This adaptation of Conan Doyle's works humorously explores the passive-aggressive nature inherent in close relationships. The dueling narrators, Holmes & Watson, recount the famous case of The Sign of the Four, while squabbling over their opposing viewpoints on this case, on narrative style and regarding the human experience, even as both characters struggle for power and status within the relationship, to comedic effect. An ensemble cast of five professional actors portray the many colorful characters who inhabit this exciting play of stolen treasure, treachery, romance, chase scenes and the long shadows of bad deeds, written for general audiences.

The play's a wonderful blend of humor, romance, detection mystery, adventure and charming whimsey.
