Élémentaire mon cher !

Amphithéâtre Olivier Messiaen - from 21 to 26 January 2019

Synopsis

In London, Sherlock Holmes and his acolyte, Doctor Watson are on the trail of a serial killer. A single element connects the victims: a mysterious symbol painted in red at the scene of the crimes. Following a fourth murder, the killer falls into the clutches of Inspector Estrade and Scotland Yard. Sherlock is not convinced: This time, it’s not “Elementary, my dear Watson!” The dynamic and talented young performers of CRÉA transform the adventures of the famous detective into a tumultuous musical comedy, seasoned with a taste for adventure.
