The Hound of the Baskervilles

by Steven Canny, John Nicholson, Arthur Conan Doyle

Overview

The story of Sherlock Holmes’s investigation of a monstrous beast terrorizing the moors has gripped imaginations since 1901. Peepolykus have taken all the familiar elements of the tale, and – through an exhilarating collision of anarchic verbal slapstick, absurd scenarios and wonderfully ridiculous comic performances – have created a sublimely funny adaptation of Arthur Conan Doyle's classic.
