Most people, Sherlockian or not, have heard of The Hound of the Baskervilles.  This production is like no other retelling of the tale. The hellish beast roaming the moors of Dartmoor.

The three actors who, through quick costume changes, were brilliant in their roles. From the French Sherlock ‘olmes to the ‘ravishing’ Cecile Stapleton.

The group of Stormy Petrels who attended this production were all thoroughly entertained, to say the least. 

You can still witness this wonderfully hilarious spoof, the Western Canadian premier, at the Newton Cultural Centre, located at 13530 – 72nd Ave., Surrey, on until October 31st.  The fog begins rolling across the moor at 7:30.

Well done!

Thanks to member Tim for supplying snacks post-show.

The next gathering of the Stormy Petrels will take place on Friday, July 26th.

We will meet at The Tapestry at UBC for our annual “Classic Movie Night” at 6:00 for snacks , movie begins rolling at 7:00.

Should you show up in Sherlockian-inspired dress, your Consulting Detective will reward you with a gift.

We will be treated to two movies. These were actually two episodes from a television series which originally aired in America in 1954.

“The Red-Headed League” and “The Case of the Shoeless Engineer” both starring Ronald Howard as Sherlock Holmes.

Please contact me if you are able to attend, as our host Brian needs to inform “Mrs Hudson”.

Hope to see you all there!
