The notorious and as-yet undiscovered genius, Vincent Van Gogh, presents Sherlock Holmes with a most unusual case. Aided by his partner Dr. Watson and his paramour Irene Adler, the trio embark on a rousing adventure and find themselves confronting the evil daughter of Professor Moriaty. With a helping hand from Oscar Wilde, the world’s greatest detective attempts to solve one of the most audacious crimes of the Victorian era and uncover a Post-impressionist conspiracy.

CAST OF CHARACTERS

SHERLOCK HOLMES Consulting detective; upper-class Oxford/Cambridge English accent.

JOHN WATSON Physician and author; English accent, perhaps with a slight Scottish brogue thrown in, as he received his Bachelor of Medicine degree from Edinburgh University.

IRENE ADLER Adventuress; upper-class American accent, as she is an opera singer who was born in New Jersey.

VINCENT VAN GOGH Post-Impressionist painter; Dutch accent.

MARIE CHARTIER Client; French accent.

OSCAR WILDE Writer and wit; an English society drawl, with only the hint of an Irish brogue, as Wilde had consciously made an effort to eradicate his Irish accent while he was a student at Oxford University.
