Priority

A gripping game of power, secrets and sacrifice, where the ultimate move leads to checkmate.

'When you have one of the first brains of Europe up against you, and all the powers of darkness at his back, there are infinite possibilities.'

London, 1901. As the British Empire wages war in the name of a Queen whose health is failing, a series of mysterious events reveal a crack in the high corridors of power. A crack that threatens to destabilise monarchy, government and empire. And at its centre, controlling the flow of information and influence, a shadowy figure plans a final deadly move.

Drawn into the game and unsure who to trust, Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson find themselves confronting figures from their past in a desperate race against time, aware that the most powerful person in the world could be in the pocket of one of the most corrupt. But just how much is Holmes willing to sacrifice as he faces ‘checkmate’?

A thrilling adventure based on the work of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, Sherlock Holmes: The Hunt for Moriarty is a world premiere combining powerful performances, a haunting soundscape and innovative design for an exhilarating theatrical experience.

Two men and a women are at a table, deep in discussion. They are wearing Victorian clothing.
Two men fighting on stage, wearing period clothing. The man on the right has his arm raised to strike the man n the left, who is flinching away from him.
Three men at a crime scene in a dark street. One of the men is crouching and the other two stand behind him.

One of the most innovative, audacious companies working in contemporary English theatre.
