The Dover Players community theater group opens its 2016 season with our eighth Sherlock Holmes production, Sherlock and Mycroft Holmes: A Tale of Two Brothers, directed by Todd Evangelista. Sherlock and Mycroft Holmes: A Tale of Two Brothers Synopsis: Sherlock Holmes, the consulting detective, has a brother named Mycroft Holmes, who is even smarter than he is. Unfortunately, Mycroft could never be a detective, since he only travels between the Diogenes Club, where no one is allowed to talk, and his government office in Whitehall, where he operates as a spymaster to protect the British Empire. When the brothers work together, they are unstoppable, but when Sherlock rebels against Mycroft's orders to kill enemy agents, he ceases to have anything to do with Mycroft. Nevertheless, Sherlock is again forced to go undercover for Mycroft, when criminals threaten England's war effort. Will he be forced to break his oath and kill again? Audience members will have a chance to match wits with the famous detective by giving us your answers at intermission and the best answers will be read at the end of the play.
