This Christmas, DEM Productions, Fat Goose Productions and Theatre Nerd Productions bring New York Times Critic's Pick A Sherlock Carol to London after a knock-out off-Broadway run last year.

Many joyful years since Dickens' most infamous miser came to honour Christmas in his heart and keep it all the year, Ebenezer Scrooge has suffered a mysterious and peculiar death. Distraught by the passing of his reformed benefactor, a grown-up and not-so-Tiny Tim visits the great detective Sherlock Holmes to ask him to investigate the curious case. But it's a dark and treacherousChristmas Eve, and once again the night is haunted by the spirits of the past, present and future. Using his elementary powers of deduction, can Holmes overcome his own ghosts to solve the mystery?

"An instant holiday classic", A Sherlock Carol gets its first production in the UK for a limited run at the Marylebone Theatre, just a stone's through away from 221B Baker Street itself.

A clever, crowd-pleasing holiday comedy!

Since you’re here…

… we have a small favour to ask. We don't want your money to support a hack's bar bill at Abattoir, but if you have a pound or two spare, we really encourage you to support a good cause. If this review has either helped you discover a gem or avoid a turkey, consider doing some good that will really make a difference.

You can donate to the charity of your choice, but if you're looking for inspiration, there are three charities we really like.

Show me the charities

Mama Biashara
Kate Copstick’s charity, Mama Biashara, works with the poorest and most marginalised people in Kenya. They give grants to set up small, sustainable businesses that bring financial independence and security. That five quid you spend on a large glass of House White? They can save someone’s life with that. And the money for a pair of Air Jordans? Will take four women and their fifteen children away from a man who is raping them and into a new life with a moneymaking business for Mum and happiness for the kids.

Theatre MAD

Their UK and International grant-making strategy is based on five criteria that raise awareness, educate, and provide care and support for the most vulnerable in society.
