Overview

A Christmas murder mystery in which Sherlock Holmes investigates a run of deaths among West End performers, with clues tied to the carol The Twelve Days of Christmas. It is staged at Alexandra Palace in London.

This Christmas murder mystery is set in Victorian London, where performers in the West End suddenly collapse during their scenes. Scotland Yard does not suspect foul play, but Sherlock Holmes finds a sinister link between the deaths and the carol The Twelve Days of Christmas. Before the killer strikes again, he must protect the rhyme's French hens, golden rings and Mother Goose.

Holmes is joined by his loyal companion Dr Watson, while his rival Athena Faversham is also drawn into the case. The tone is festive and playful, with a good deal of mischief running alongside the investigation, and the story keeps returning to the question of whether the detective can solve the case in time.

The production takes place at Alexandra Palace in London and suits audiences who enjoy a seasonal whodunit with a light-hearted streak.
