Sherlock Holmes and the Case of the Christmas Carol is a British play written by John Longenbaugh. The play is a mix of Sherlock Holmes and Charles Dickens' Ebenezer Scrooge.
Literature's favourite quirky detective is infused with the spirit of a crotchety Ebenezer Scrooge in this festive Victorian theatrical treat; there is so much to recognise and discover in this beautifully crafted story which combines these two iconic British institutions. After failed attempts by Dr. Watson to cheer Holmes into celebrating the holiday season, the unrepentant, ill-tempered detective is forced to deduce the facts and solve the most important mystery of his life – past, present and future.
