Cast Set for Ken Ludwig's MORIARTY at FreeFall Theatre

freeFall Theatre has revealed the cast of Ken Ludwig's Moriarty: A New Sherlock Holmes Adventure opening November 8. Reprising their roles from 2023's smash-hit Ken Ludwig's Baskerville, Eric Davis and Matthew McGee return to the freeFall stage as Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson. Eric Davis is an award-winning actor, director, playwright and is also the Artistic Director at freeFall Theatre. Matthew McGee is a popular actor in Tampa Bay and has also appeared at Walt Disney World, Asolo Repertory Theatre, American Stage, Jobsite Theatre, Stageworks, Florida Studio Theatre and at the Straz Center for the Performing Arts. McGee was recently named Best Actor (Reader's Pick) in Creative Loafing's 2024 Best of the Bay Issue. Joining Davis and McGee are Robert Teasdale, Kelly Pekar and Sara DelBeato.

Robert Teasdale (Moriarty, Von Orstein, Mycroft Holmes, and others) recently appeared as Eliot Rosewater in Kurt Vonnegut's God Bless You, Mr. Rosewater with freeFall and can be seen in numerous film and television projects including Showtime's George and Tammy. Kelly Pekar (Irene Adler, Mrs. Hudson, Cartwright) is a Brooklyn based actress and playwright with numerous freeFall credits including Into the Woods and Peter and the Starcatcher. Pekar is currently part of the writing team for upcoming UK-Hungarian action feature, The Last Train to Budapest. Comic actress Sara DelBeato (Daisy, Mrs. Barabas, Hilda Klebb, and others) returns to the freeFall stage after having last appeared in Kurt Vonnegut's God Bless You, Mr. Rosewater and the world premiere of Nightsweat by playwright Natalie Symons. DelBeato is an award winning singer and comedienne and has performed across the country in cabarets and concerts. 

Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson are back on the case! An investigation into the Bohemian king's stolen letters cascades into an international mystery filled with spies, blackmail and intrigue. With world peace at stake, Holmes and Watson join forces with American actress Irene Adler to take down cunning criminal mastermind Professor Moriarty and his network of devious henchmen. Five actors play over 40 roles in this adventure that has more danger, more laughter, more romance, and more mystery than our smash hit production of Ken Ludwig's Baskerville.
