Description

Sherlock Holmes, a play that has been revived many times since its first performance in 1899, was written by William Hooker Gillette. As an actor, playwright, and stage-manager, Gillette is best remembered for his portrayal of Sherlock Holmes on stage, a role he performed over 1,300 times. Gillette's contribution to the theater was significant, particularly in the areas of stage settings, special sound and lighting effects, and characterization. His depiction of Holmes has had a lasting impact, introducing iconic elements such as the deerstalker cap and curved pipe that have become synonymous with the character. This edition of Sherlock Holmes features 126 pages of Gillette's original play, presented in paperback format.
