Sherlock Holmes: The Valley of Fear to stream online alongside UK tour

Sherlock Holmes: The Valley of Fear will stream online alongside its ongoing UK tour.

Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s final Sherlock Holmes novel is being brought to the stage by Blackeyed Theatre who recently adapted and toured The Sign of Four.

The new production has been adapted by Nick Lane with original music composed by Tristan Parkes.

A filmed performance of the show will be available to watch online worldwide from Thursday, 20 October.

A mysterious, coded message is received, a warning of imminent danger, drawing Sherlock Holmes and the faithful Dr Watson into a tale of intrigue and murder stretching from 221B Baker Street to an ancient moated manor house, to the bleak Pennsylvanian Vermissa Valley.

Faced with a trail of bewildering clues, Holmes begins to unearth a darker, wider web of corruption, a secret society and the sinister work of one Professor Moriarty.

The Valley of Fear sees Luke Barton and Joseph Derrington reprise their critically-acclaimed roles as the iconic duo Holmes and Watson. The cast also includes Blake Kubena, Gavin Molloy, and Alice Osmanksi.

Artistic Director of Blackeyed Theatre Adrian McDougall said: “Sherlock Holmes is a worldwide phenomenon, so I’m delighted to be making The Valley of Fear available online to a broader audience.

“Of all Conan Doyle’s Holmes novels, The Valley of Fear is possibly the least well known and very rarely seen on stage, so I’m hopeful that fans of the great detective, along with those who love great theatre, will tune in. It’s an epic story that spans continents, so it seems fitting our production will do the same!”
