A family stage mystery set in 1906, when a famous masked magician vanishes mid-show and Sherlock Holmes, with an excitable Watson, is called in. Their investigation takes them through London's world of Edwardian magic, so the audience sees plenty of tricks along the way. Recommended for ages 6 and up; it runs about 1 hour 40 minutes including a 20-minute interval.
