Pamela Sterling, former Coterie Artistic Director, adapted this comic mystery from the famous Nate the Great series of books by award-winning writer Marjorie Weinman Sharmat. As Nate dons a trench coat and a Sherlock Holmes hat to investigate mysteries, his adventures are enacted in a film noir style, complete with a jazz music background. Nate's trusty dog Sludge and his friend Rosamond team up with Nate to use their brains and problem-solving skills to find all the answers to children's most pressing questions. But even as Nate solves important cases, he always remembers to leave a note for this mother and to wear his galoshes. There are curriculum connections using the scientific method of problem solving, logic and deductive reasoning, mystery genre of literature, and color blending.
