Summer - outdoor promenade production in Williamson Park, Lancaster
by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle adapted and directed by Simon Corble
A night of terror, intrigue and laughter
Thursday 15th July 1999 to Saturday 21st August 1999 at 7.15 pm excluding Sundays
What is haunting the Baskerville name? Is it flesh and blood? Or is it a ghost? The work of a criminal mind, or a fevered imagination?
Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson have certainly got 'an ugly dangerous business' to solve this summer.
Bring sturdy shoes, warm clothing and something to sit on, then watch the mystery unfold as you follow the actors from scene to scene around Williamson Park.
