"Following the huge success of Sheer Luck Holmes – The Case of the Floating Fiancée, Holmes, Watson and Mrs Hudson are back by very popular demand with an all-new murder mystery packed with chaos, confusion and catastrophic re-enactments. Join the detective trio for a laugh-out-loud evening of fine dining and super-sleuthing silliness as they attempt to recreate one of Holmes' most recent cases. There’s just one problem... Watson and Mrs Hudson are not exactly seasoned actors. Expect outrageous characters, theatrical disasters, slapstick mayhem, missed cues, questionable accents and enough mishaps to make Holmes question his own powers of deduction. Can you piece together the clues and discover whodunnit... or will it all come down to Sheer Luck? A hilarious, fully interactive murder mystery dinner show with a delicious three-course meal that's simply to DIE for. "
