Sherlock Holmes: The Speckled Band
May3 - 42024
Placer Rep once again turns the Parkview Event Room into a black box theater -- this time to perform a lively stage reading of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's "The Speckled Band," based upon his 1892 short story.
HISTORY
Sir Arthur Conan Doyle penned this classical theater play in 1910, based upon his short story "The Adventure of the Speckled Band" published in 1892.
Doyle's friend J.M. Barrie (Peter Pan author) attended rehearsal to provide advice and support. The play premiered on 4 June 1910. The play was an immediate success. The Speckled Band ran for 169 performances at the Adelphi Theatre before enjoying a successful tour in England and the continent. Autumn of 1910 brought the production to Boston, Massachusetts and later New York City, New York.
