"I haven’t laughed like that in as long as I can remember," proclaimed one audience member on her way out of this show. The Adventure of the Blue Carbuncle brings to life a farcical enactment of this Sherlock Holmes mystery told in the style of an old 1930s radio drama. Welsh actor Bernard Kane brings to life a whole cast of characters with accents and personalities from across the British Isles. Foley/Slapstick artists Jim Parsons and Ryan David Butt colour the story (or at times outright disrupt the thing) with a wide variety of both well-placed and mis-placed sound effects. Musicians Louis McDonald and Diederik van Dijk carry the narrative along with original music and songs. Is it a musical? A radio-play? Theatre? A sing-along? All of the above? Come along and see for yourselves.
