Ken Ludwig’s The Game’s Afoot or Holmes for the Holidays – winner of Best Play 2012 from The Mystery Writers of America Edgar Allen Poe Award.
The danger and hilarity are non-stop in this glittering whodunit set during the Christmas holidays. It is December 1936, and actor William Gillette, admired the world over for his leading role in the play Sherlock Holmes, has invited his fellow cast members to his home for a weekend of revelry. But when one of the guests is stabbed to death, the festivities in this isolated house of tricks and mirrors quickly turn dangerous. It is then up to Gillette himself, as he assumes the persona of his beloved Holmes, to track down the killer before the next victim appears.
