What did our critic think of ANNIE at Greater Boston Stage Company?

In playwright Mark Shanahan’s clever “A Sherlock Carol,” now at Lyric Stage Boston through December 21, when self-described “consulting detective” Sherlock Holmes hears a knock at his 221B Baker Street door, there’s not a band of Christmas carolers on the other side but rather a visitor seeking his help in investigating the unsolved death of Ebenezer Scrooge.

Lyric Stage Boston will present Mark Shanahan’s A Sherlock Carol from November 14 to December 21, 2025. Directed by Ilyse Robbins, the holiday mystery combines the worlds of Sherlock Holmes and A Christmas Carol in a witty, fast-paced production featuring Leigh Barrett, Christopher Chew, Paul Melendy, and more.
