London, 1885. Seemingly disparate citizens are falling victim to a plague of madness which continually evokes – in increasingly curious ways – the whimsical worlds of Lewis Carroll. As the mystery deepens, the only thing becoming clearer is the proper man for the job. But what happens when Sherlock Holmes – the world’s foremost logician – enters a realm where logic does not exist?
“We are but older children, dear
Who fret to find our bedtime near.”
Inevitable and surprising, dark and humorous, fresh yet classically-minded, canonical yet entirely its own, Sherlock Through The Looking-Glass deftly explores the nature of reality, the choices we make, and the legacy we leave.
The Porters of Hellsgate Theatre Company gave Sherlock Through The Looking-Glass its world premiere in August of this year at the Whitmore Theatre in North Hollywood. Orwellian had a brief run at Theatre of Note during the 2013 Hollywood Fringe Festival.
Of Sherlock Through The Looking-Glass, the Tolucan Times said, “... superb acting, sharp writing ... a production worthy of cheers and applause.” NoHoArtsDistrict.com cheered the “... clever script and exceptional cast.” Said StageSceneLA.com, “... topnotch performances and exciting staging combine to further solidify the Porters’ reputation as one of L.A.’s most exciting young acting troupes.”
Sherlock Through The Looking-Glass opens Friday, November 8 at 8pm, and will run Fridays at 8pm and Sundays at 2pm (no performance on November 29). Both productions will close on December 22.
