Cashel Choral and Dramatic Society presents The Hound of the Baskervilles


Cashel Choral and Dramatic Society is delighted to present, by kind permission of Concord Theatricals, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s story The Hound of the Baskervilles adapted for stage by Tim Kelly.

The greatest of all Sherlock Holmes adventures! Adapted to a modern setting that takes literature’s most spine-chilling mystery and turns it into a play of suspense, humour and ultimate terror.

Sir Henry has become heir to the vast Baskerville fortune, a legacy that comes complete with a family curse---- death at the fangs of a living horror prowling the English moor. Only Sherlock Holmes can stop the beast from striking again.

While mysterious lights signal Baskerville Hall, the hound terrifies the countryside, the sleuthing begins and suspicion falls on sinister servants, butterfly collectors, ladies in distress, and escaped convicts.

Who wrote the letter that summoned the hound? Why do its eyes emit flame? What is the significance of the prehistoric huts dotting the moor? Is Sir henry’s romance with the lovely Kathy doomed? Is the supernatural at work? Audiences will have a terrific time attempting to discover the true killer-and reacting to the surprise twist. When the chills and shrieks settle down, there’s always a laugh to relieve the rising tension.

The play is directed by Oliver Corbett and it runs from Thursday November 21st to Sunday November 24th.
