Sherlock Holmes: Curse of the Sign of Four

Local theatergoers love a mystery, it seems. A year ago the Spokane Civic Theatre sold out its production of Agatha Christie’s The Mousetrap, while every showing of the current studio theater production of Clue: The Musical has sold out, including a few added to its run. What we’re trying to tell you is not to wait to get tickets to see this next thriller, based on the second installment of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s original Sherlock canon. Because the chosen script seemed a little flat, Civic technical director David Baker — a Sherlock enthusiast — rewrote it to spice things up, meaning the Civic’s version will be like no other.
