Oh Sh*t, Sherlock!

Multiple dates and times The October Ensemble Theater, 66 S Main St, Ocean Grove, NJ 07756 - THIRD FLOOR

THE ACTOR PLAYING SHERLOCK HAS NEVER SEEN THE SCRIPT. HILARITY ENSUES AS THE REST OF THE CAST TRIES TO KEEP THE MYSTERY ON TRACK!

A DIFFERENT SHERLOCK EVERY NIGHT!

Parody | Comedic | Campy | Unpredictable | 21+ 

Oh Sh*t, Sherlock! is the hilarious hit new comedy by acclaimed playwright Elle Michael River (Murder, Magic & Mead, The Sweetest Crime) based on the classic mysteries by Arthur Conan Doyle’s Sherlock Holmes. The twist? The actor playing Sherlock has never seen the script or attended a rehearsal! Absolute hilarity ensues as the rest of the cast try to keep the mystery on track while Sherlock barrels forward on pure comedic instinct alone.

Oh Sh*t, Sherlock! is a campy, hilarious parody where Sherlock has never seen the script and anything can happen! No two shows are the same! 

After two sold-out runs earlier this year, OH SH*T SHERLOCK returns for a limited time this September with BRAND NEW MYSTERIES for our guest Sherlock's to solve...

Is the venue wheelchair and mobility accessible? 

Yes. The venue has a ramp at the front entrance and an elevator to reach the third floor. If you require a wheelchair seat, there is a spot to notate that during checkout. If you have specific accommodations you would like to discuss, please email info@octoberensemble.com 

Is there an age limit? 

21+ Only. 

Can I bring my baby/infant to the show?

No, all attendees must be 21+ and no babies/infants are permitted. 

I've seen this show during one of its previous runs, what's new this time around? 

A lot! This run features two entirely different, never-before-seen mysteries compared to our previous run of the show! 

I've seen one of these Sherlock's before, won't they know the script? 

Nope! This run features entirely new mysteries for our Sherlocks to solve, and we're excited to be inviting back some fan-favorites! Don't worry, they still have no idea what's happening. 
 

Why is this show Rated R? 

The show may contain mature language and humor. Every performance is different depending on who is playing Sherlock and the choices they make.

Is this show BYOF (Bring your own food) like some of your past productions? 

No. This show features mini cocktail table seating that is perfect for refreshments, but do not provide enough room for full spreads of food. Traditional theatre concessions (Candy, Chips, Water, etc.) will be available prior to the show. 

I've never heard of this show before. Has it been done before?

OH SH*T SHERLOCK is an original comedy written by esteemed playwright Elle Michael River (Murder, Magic & Mead , The Sweetest Crime) based on the the works of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's Sherlock Holmes. It had its sold-out world premiere run right here at the October Ensemble theatre earlier this year, followed by another sold out run in June, and is returning again for a limited time this September with brand new Sherlock stories even more hilarious than the last! Don't miss it! 

Does this show include audience participation? 

No, this show does not include audience participation. It is an immersive experience where patrons witness one unscripted actor as they stumble their way through a classic Sherlock Holmes mystery. 

Can I be chosen to be Sherlock?

No. Sherlock Holmes will be played by a different local actor every night, who has never seen the script before.
