After a sell-out Edinburgh Fringe 2022 run, and two sold-out nights at the Golden Goose Theatre, That’s a Bit of Sheer Luck! is ready for its next stride with its first week-long London run at the Old Red Lion.

Long gone are the glory days of Sherlock and Watson...in comes the new era of Sheerluck and Whatsitt. It’s 24 hours until the coveted Canine Union of National Talent, but a dog snatching criminal has been unleashed! Get ready for a woofdunnit like never before, as you join Sheerluck and his pals to sniff out the preposterous puppy-plucker and solve the crime. Full of puns, slapstick and twists, That’s A Bit of Sheer Luck! blends everything to love about the classic Sherlock Holmes into a riotous tour-de-farce!

Directed by Phoebe White (Siren Song, Camden Fringe 2023; The Halo Effect Short Film) with an original score from Manav Kher (Mix Technician, Twickenham Film Studios). Written by Emily Rennie (BBC Writer’s Room Drama Top 3%, 2023; Can I Call You Back? Theatre Peckham 2022).
