    First Visit

    by JD on 3/30/22Walnut Street Theatre - Philadelphia

    We enjoyed the play very much, especially because of how much fun the characters had doing the show. Their characters were entertaining and witty. Thanks for a great afternoon!

    Murder and Humor Galore

    by SullyDoc on 3/30/22Walnut Street Theatre - Philadelphia

    The Adventure of the Speckled Band expertly melded a well-crafted Sherlock Holmes mysterious with tongue-in-cheek humor that had the audience enrapt and laughing throughout.

    A ton of fun

    by AD on 3/29/22Walnut Street Theatre - Philadelphia

    The play was a ton of fun. The actors were very talented I was amazed at how they went from character to character seemlessly. They presented the different personalities so well that some times I had trouble figuring out it was the same actor. The story was great and it made for an enjoyable evening.

    Speckled Band

    by Chris C on 3/26/22Walnut Street Theatre - Philadelphia

    Not the best Sherlock Holmes play we’ve seen. Nice venue but the play was somewhat disappointing.

    The Most Beautiful Scenery I've every seen!

    by Max Rivers on 3/21/22Walnut Street Theatre - Philadelphia

    The Adventure of The Speckled Band, at the Walnut Theater in Philly created a set, the likes of, I have never seen before! It was a feast for the eyes. We were up in the balcony, and for some reason, they didn't mike the actors, so it was hard to hear some of the actors. The play is delightfully funny, a surprise for a Sherlock Holmes event. Unfortunately, to achieve that result, they dumbed down the mystery, so there was no suspense, and Sherlock was a bit silly, instead of that stern, curt but always right character we've come to love. So come for an enjoyable bit of fluff, and then go and read the original to get the impact and suspense that is missing here.

    Date Night

    by Francis on 3/20/22Walnut Street Theatre - Philadelphia

    We had very good seats. The show started on time. It moved well and I could follow the storyline. I look forward to our next visit to the Walnut Street Theater.

    Enjoyable romp

    by Rose in PA on 3/13/22Walnut Street Theatre - Philadelphia

    The play is entertaining, though for a Sherlock Holmes mystery there is very little of Sherlock to be seen! The actors do an admirable job of quick changes, wigs, mustaches and scarves to embody several characters each. Sadly our biggest complaint is NOT onstage but in the seats--at our performance, during the first Act, at least 7 different cell phones rang. Not the WST fault, because they make announcements, but how people are so clueless is beyond me.

    Really cute & humerous show

    by Karen B on 3/12/22Walnut Street Theatre - Philadelphia

    We are in are 30s and really enjoyed the Sherlock Holmes play. There was a perfect level of humor and the general feel of the play felt true to the core of Arthur Conan Doyle's stories. I would recommend to anyone who really enjoys Sherlock Holmes.

    fun and silly!

    by Ellen from Hanover PA on 3/9/22Walnut Street Theatre - Philadelphia

    We especially enjoyed all the wardrobe changes. Very slick! It was fun figuring out who the actors were in their different roles. Our first theater experience since the pandemic. And an excellent choice.
