Our sincerest gratitude for your presence. Until our next encounter! Thanks to all who came out to see Sherlock Holmes and the Adventure of the Fallen Souffle.

Playwright David MacGregor only ever intended to write one Sherlock play
…Elusive Ear (produced at Stage West in Summer 2024),
but was prevailed upon to write a sequel, …Fallen Soufflé, and then a third
…Ghost Machine
(which Stage West will produce in Summer 2026).

FUN FACTS about Sherlock Holmes and the Adventure of the Fallen Souffle by David MacGregor.

The alternate title for the play was Sherlock Holmes and the Adventure of the Playboy Prince, but the sheer absurdity of a mystery based on a fallen soufflé appealed to the playwright.

More facts to come.
Three actors in period costumes perform a dramatic scene inside a Victorian-style room; the woman gestures emphatically at a seated man while another man looks on. Overlaid text reads: “The alternate title for the play was Sherlock Holmes and the Adventure of the Playboy Prince, but the sheer absurdity of a mystery based on a fallen soufflé appealed to the playwright.”

A man dressed as Sherlock Holmes in a blue plaid suit, matching deerstalker hat, and blue shoes sits cross-legged in a wooden chair, fingers steepled in a thoughtful pose. The background is neutral grey. Bold black text on the left reads: “Dear patrons, tonight the mystery is served.” A subtle glowing border frames the image.
