The Mysterious Case of Professor BonesSummary: Nefarious neighbors. A suspicious stepdad. And, most importantly, a missing Professor. 10-year-old girl detective Ada has plenty to concern herself with – and that’s before a certain Sherlock Holmes author appears out of one of her favorite books. But with his ridiculous talk of ghosts and fairies, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle is proving far less helpful than anticipated…or is he? This mystery play leads young audiences on the trail of a missing dog through a neighborhood full of colorful characters and suspicious persons, to discover what lies beyond the rational.Location: Struble Theatre, Wirtz Center for the Performing ArtsWritten by Sydney MacGilvrayDirected by Rachel RubinContact: sayukilayne2028@u.northwestern.edu
