The Jefferson Arts Committee (JAC) is back and offering a bus trip to the Hunterdon Hills Playhouse in Hampton.
The luncheon matinee on Wednesday, March 23, features “Sherlock Holmes Returns,” the new crown jewel of the Playhouse’s popular immersive musical comedy series. This is a pre-Broadway engagement of the world premiere of “Returns,” which has a new plot and a slew of new songs. Upon arriving in the grand dining room — custom built with a tiered seating arrangement that allows the show to be enjoyed from any seat in the house — audience members will find themselves in the beautiful city of London.
Buckingham Palace has been robbed, and it’s up to world-famous sleuth Sherlock Holmes, his trusted mate Dr. Watson, and members of the audience to go on a hilarious hunt to find the missing royal treasure.
The show was written by Peter Sham and Brad Carroll, writers of the West End hit comedy, “Lend Me A Tenor: The Musical, and featuring the superb Hunterdon Hills Playhouse orchestra.
