A star-studded cast brings this world premiere mystery by nationally acclaimed Twin Cities playwright Jeff Hatcher and Steve Hendrickson to life. Sherlock Holmes never lost a case. Or did he? In this new mystery Holmes comes up against his most diabolical adversary in a tale of intrigue, international politics, wine and murder. And he’s stymied. Enter Hercule Poirot 25 years later to investigate a new crime that rhymes with the first. 

Performance Venue

Park Square Theatre

Content Warnings/Age Recommendations

Contains mature themes such as murder. This performance is recommended for ages 11 and older.

Themes

  • Hercule Poirot investigates a crime that seems to “rhyme” with a previous crime investigated by Sherlock Holmes. What do you think it means for two separate events to rhyme?
  • One character seems to not reach their goal, and they feel that they have failed. However that eventually leads to a success, in an unexpected way. In your view, what is the difference between failure and progress?
