A Sherlock Carol

A SHERLOCK CAROL RETURNS FOR THE HOLIDAYS!

A SHERLOCK CAROL by Mark Shanahan 
December 11-21, 2025, at Carnegie Stage 
Pittsburgh Premiere, directed by Andrew Paul & starring David Whalen as Sherlock Holmes

“A clever, crowd-pleasing holiday comedy!”
- The New York Times (Critic’s Pick)

TWO BELOVED CLASSIC TALES. ONE THRILLING NEW MYSTERY.

Moriarty is dead, to begin with. And Sherlock Holmes is a haunted man. But, when a grown-up Tiny Tim asks Holmes to investigate the death of Ebeneezer Scrooge, the Great Detective must use his gifts to solve a Dickens of a Christmas mystery! 

A hit off-Broadway and in London, Mark Shanahan’s A Sherlock Carol hits all the right notes, seamlessly melding Charles Dickens’ very familiar A Christmas Carol with a comparatively minor Conan Doyle story, The Adventure of the Blue Carbuncle. Seven actors take on the beloved characters in this heartwarming and highly theatrical holiday treat for the whole family!
