Due to popular demand, McCarter Theatre has added two performances to the run of Ken Ludwig’s Baskerville: A Sherlock Holmes Mystery. Performances have been added on Wednesday, March 25 at 7:30 p.m. and Sunday, March 29 at 7:30 p.m. on the Matthews Stage.

Adapted from Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s beloved 1901 mystery, Ken Ludwig’s adaptation of “The Hound of the Baskervilles” is both adventure and comedy, following the inimitable Sherlock Holmes and his sturdy companion Dr. Watson amid foggy London streets and the foreboding moors of the English countryside. The work is a co-production with Washington, D.C.’s Arena Stage.

Directed by Amanda Dehnert, Baskerville runs through March 29 and includes a cast of five actors ricocheting through more than forty separate roles in non-traditional staging.

Single tickets for Baskerville: A Sherlock Holmes Mystery start at $25 and are on sale online at www.mccarter.org, by phone at (609) 258-2787, or in person at the McCarter Theatre Ticket Office, located at 91 University Place in Princeton.
