When I was approached to direct "Moriarty," I was initially fear struck having seen “Hounds of Baskerville” with the period set, few actors playing many parts, period costumes, the many changes for the characters and VELCRO! Sorry, but that’s a big part of the memory. I told the cast about it and how wonderful the show was in all aspects but the thing I remembered was the Velcro. So I promised no Velcro would be used in the making of "Moriarty!"   Then I sat down and read and reread the script. It started to come together. Fear soon turned to excitement as the team got together to come up with a plan, and everything fell into place. I’m super proud of the show we have created to put before you. I’ve added onions. No, no. No onions but plenty of layers thrown in. From drama, to comedy, to omages to, well … you get the picture. I’m not sure this production of "Moriarty" is what Ken Ludwig envisioned, but it is ours. So sit back and enjoy "Moriarty."
