In the intriguing play Sherlock Holmes VS Conan Doyle, currently playing at the Théâtre Les enfants du Paradis in Paris until September 29, 2024, Sherlock Holmes comes face to face with his greatest adversary: his creator, Arthur Conan Doyle. Fed up with the adventures of his famous detective, the author decides to put an end to his literary existence, triggering a conflict between the writer and his creation. This struggle is brought to life on stage byOphélie Raymond, with direction by Renato Ribeiro.
Serge Requet Barville skilfully plays Conan Doyle, torn between his desire to escape his character's grasp and his attachment to him. The Victorian setting, faithful to the period, serves as the backdrop for this detective comedy full of twists and turns, in which the boundary between fiction and reality is delightfully blurred.
The show is aimed at literature fans, mystery buffs and anyone who wonders about the complex relationship between an author and his work. On the other hand, those unfamiliar with Conan Doyle's world may miss some of the subtleties. A not-to-be-missed theatrical experience that plunges you into the heart of the duel between Holmes and his creator.
