Coal Creek Theater of Louisville presents
the World Premiere of
The Legacy of Baker Street
by Brian Dowling
Directed by Dan Schock
Setting, London in the 1930's. As the Industrial Revolution fades into the Great Depression, two sisters embark on an adventure worthy of their father and his late friend, a legendary consulting detective of the Victorian Gaslight Era. The great city is plunged into a new reign of terror by a new master criminal, and Felicity and Charlotte Watson must use their wits and the scientific methods of deduction that have been passed onto them by their predecessors in order to save the millions inhabiting the city and carry on The Legacy of Baker Street.
Run Time - 2 hours, with one 15-minute intermission
When COVID-19 shut down live theater, we turned to streaming for our 2021 season. We tested the platform with a live 12-minute scene from ‘The Legacy of Baker Street,’ shown above. The play returned as a full-length, live production in 2023.
