Sherlock Holmes and the 12 Days of Christmas
Audiences step into Victorian London for a festive murder mystery where West End performers suddenly drop dead mid-scene. Sherlock Holmes uncovers a sinister connection to The Twelve Days of Christmas and must race against time to catch the killer before the next murder. Staged in a Victorian theatre, the production blends detective drama with panto-style mischief and festive cheer.
