A new addition to the stage section of The Howard Ostrom Holmes and Watson Autograph Collection , this time around it is Tim DeBaun and Dean Walkuski from the recently opened play "Sherlock Holmes And The Suicide Club" at The Downtown Theatre Orlando Florida.  
The play is set in 1914 upon the brink of the 1st World War . 
Howard himself was privileged enough to be a guest of honor at the opening showing and reports that  "It was an enjoyable production, The main settings were 221b and the Suicide Club . It is mostly a dialogue play with Holmes having upwards of 70% of the dialogue which made it an extremely tough part to play.  Debaun plays a creditable Holmes (sans pipe or deerstalker) and Walkuski shines as Watson, you would have thought he was Nigel Bruce reincarnated. Watson's humorous moments were an essential balance to a play discussing suicides, and an upcoming war. The familiar characters of Mrs. Hudson and Mycroft Holmes also make appearances. 

But be prepared for a long time seated though as it is a long play running  to just under 2 1/2 hours, which I felt dragged out a little bit too much in the final scenes in it's explanations to the crowd of how and what occurred. However, a lot of that may have been necessary for the attendees not quite as clued up on the methods of Holmes.  An enjoyable evening all around and I do recommend catching the play when it is in an area near you". 

The play runs untill April 27th in Orlando and will also be performed in  Houston,Texas  in June, and a local group in Minneapolis, Minnesota. in August.
