  • Sherlock Holmes & the West End
    SHERLOCK HOLMES & 6m/1f THE WEST END HORROR By Anthony Dodge & Marcia Milgrom Dodge Adapted from the novel "The West End Horror" By Nicholas Meyer "Set in 1895, in London's fashionable theater district, the plot concerns two rather bizarre murders - one of a theater critic (egad!) and the other, the ingenue for the D'Oyly Carte season of Gilbert and Sullivan comic operas. Along with Richard D'Oyly Carte, W.S. Gilbert and Sir Arthur Sullivan, there are appearances by other theatrical and literary luminaries of the day, such as Oscar Wilde, George Bernard Shaw, "Dracula" author Bram Stoker, and the great actors Sir Henry Irving and Dame Ellen Terry. They are all tossed into this glorious goulash of a play with such gleeful dexterity it will take your breath away. The thrill of watching skilled actors changing not only wigs and costumes, but their very silhouette, is exhilarating." (Richard B. Watson as Sherlock Holmes) ~JACK EDDLEMAN, Special to the Herald Received a 2003 Edgar Allen Poe Award Nomination for BEST PLAY By The Mystery Writers Of America The World Premiere Production was presented by Bay Street Theatre Sag Harbor, Long Island, NY June 2002 “… a dashingly clever play… a dashingly clever production… expect two hours of sophisticated fun” - NY NEWSDAY “…a perfect theater piece… whimsical theater wizardries… the entire cast is dazzling … with aplomb and style… high good fun…” - SOUTHAMPTON PRESS “… wicked, witty fun… superbly conceived and executed…an East End delight!” - THE INDEPENDENT “This Horror's A Beauty… The Dodge's are extremely clever playwrights… wonderfully original and fast paced… the most inventive play that has graced the Bay Street stage to date… the words are witty and engaging…cunning and multi dimensional.

  • The Shaw One Hundred
    The Basic Holmesian Library A Catalog by Timothy J. Johnson In conjunction with an exhibit based on John Bennett Shaw's list of One Hundred and a conference sponsored by The Norwegian Explorers of Minnesota Elmer L. Andersen Library Special Collections & Rare Books University of Minnesota Libraries June — July 2001 Minneapolis 2001 Introduction to the Exhibit “Some years ago I staged an exhibition of what I then considered to be the One Hundred Basic Books, pamphlets and periodicals relating to Sherlock Holmes.” So wrote John Bennett Shaw in a short introduction to his first official compilation of these books, pamphlets and periodicals, which he titled “The Basic Holmesian Library”. His goal was to give “an in-depth view of the entire Holmesian culture,” and while he admitted the difficulty encountered in choosing what to include out of so many fine writings, he approached this daunting task with the enthusiasm of one who truly understood the meaning of Collecting Sherlockiana. His own library, which he defined in his essay “Collecting Sherlockiana” as “…a number of books and other printed material on one subject, or on several,” focused on Sherlock Holmes. An avid bibliophile, he narrowed his collecting to this one subject after donating his other collections to such universities as Notre Dame, Tulsa, and the University of New Mexico. It is perhaps ironic to use the term narrowed for such a collection, which grew to over 15, 000 items. As his own library expanded with acquisitions of previously printed as well as newly published items, he revised his list of the Basic Holmesian Library.

  • Nicholas Meyer—The View from the Scribe by Ray Morton
    Nicholas Meyer—The View from the Scribe By Ray Morton Some writers struggle in transitioning from one type of writing to another, but Nicholas Meyer has conquered many forms. Learn Meyer’s cross-format storytelling processes and what encouraged him to write his memoir, The View From the Bridge: Memories of Star Trek and a Life in Hollywood. Writer-director Nicholas Meyer (Photo by Albert L. Ortega/WireImage) When asked to name his profession, Nicholas Meyer identifies himself as a “storyteller.” It has never much mattered to him in which venue—books, movies, television, or the stage—those stories are told. Meyer has repeatedly taken a free-range approach to creative expression over the course of a remarkable writing career in which he has authored novels, nonfiction books, stage plays, radio dramas, and reviews. Storytelling is what he does. Meyer has directed a number of excellent films, but is perhaps best known for being an expert screenwriter who creates smart, sharply constructed, and enormously entertaining scripts filled with engaging characters and clever, literate dialogue. With the September 2009 publication of The View From the Bridge: Memories of Star Trek and a Life in Hollywood, Meyer has added memoirist to his considerable list of accomplishments. Written in a witty, engaging style and chock-full of intriguing tales of Meyer’s experiences in the Hollywood trenches—as well as insightful observations about art, craft and life—the book recounts Meyer’s journey from a Manhattan childhood filled with books and music and movies, to the Writers’ Workshop at the University of Iowa, to a job in the New York headquarters of Paramount Pictures (that had him writing press kits by day and penning spec scripts at night).

  • Arthur Conan Doyle
    Arthur Conan Doyle . Sir Arthur Conan Doyle Sir Arthur Conan Doyle Arthur Ignatius Conan Doyle Born 22 May 1859 Edinburgh, Scotland 7 July 1930 (aged 71) Died Crowborough, East Sussex, England Occupation Novelist, short story writer, poet, physician Nationality Scottish Citizenship British Detective fiction, science fiction, historical Genres novels, non-fiction Notable Stories of Sherlock Holmes work(s) The Lost World Influences[show] Signature Sir Arthur Ignatius Conan Doyle DL (22 May 1859 – 7 July 1930[1]) was a Scottish[2] physician and writer, most noted for his stories about the detective Sherlock Holmes, generally considered a milestone in the field of crime fiction, and for the adventures of Professor Challenger. He was a prolific writer whose other works include science fiction stories, plays, romances, poetry, non-fiction and historical novels. Life and career Early life Arthur Conan Doyle was born on 22 May 1859 at 11 Picardy Place, Edinburgh, Scotland.[3][2] His father, Charles Altamont Doyle, was English of Irish descent, and his mother, born Mary Foley, was Irish. They married in 1855.[4] In 1864 the family dispersed due to Charles's growing alcoholism and the children were temporarily housed across Edinburgh. In 1867, the family came together again and lived in the squalid tenement flats at 3 Sciennes Place.[5] Although he is now referred to as "Conan Doyle", the origin of this compound surname is uncertain. The entry in which his baptism is recorded in the register of St Mary's Cathedral in Edinburgh gives "Arthur Ignatius Conan" as his Christian name, and simply "Doyle" as his surname.
