In the organizer's words:

based on the stories by Arthur Conan Doyle

Directed by Markus Fennert and Fabian Hagedorn
Set design: Ella Späte and Coco Ruch
Stage version: Fabian Hagedorn

London is sinking into chaos and unsolved cases are piling up at Scotland Yard. There is one main reason for this: Sherlock Holmes has disappeared. The master detective, who has solved countless cases for the London police, has not been seen in public for weeks. His faithful companion John Watson and the housekeeper Mrs. Hudson are also at a loss. But it soon becomes clear that Sherlock Holmes is by no means idle. He prepares himself for his greatest adventure yet.
Immerse yourself in Victorian London - the world of Sherlock Holmes - against the picturesque backdrop of Erfurt's barefoot ruins. Experience a fast-paced crime comedy based on Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's iconic stories about the greatest detective in British literature.
