Spot on! I have never seen a more evocative portrayal of the Great Detective, and several of his friends and enemies as well. I was riveted, and could have watched for hours.... full review

Miles-Thomas masterfully brings the world's greatest detective to life, and captures the essence of Doctor Watson and Moriarty while he's at it.... full review

Sherlock: The Last Act proves that writing and performance, at the heart of it all, truly create a magical Fringe show. And this one is no exception. Incredible words, incredible performance.... full review
LAUREN SIMON certified reviewer June 24, 2023
What an enjoyable Holmesian retrospective. I highly recommend this show for any and all Sherlock Holmes fans, especially for Nige Miles-Thomas's excellent embodiment of Sherlock and, as another reviewer mentioned, "the trip down memory lane".... full review
PAM NOLES certified reviewer June 23, 2023
An excellent -- and surprisingly moving -- exploration of the *thoughts* and of Holmes during some of the "greatest hits" that Watson put out in the world, which he / Doyle never shared. We know Holmes' *actions* during those recorded events, and now we know the *feelings* of the man who claims to have none experienced.... full review

I first visited 221B Baker Street through the pages of Conan Doyle’s (technically Watson’s) stories when I was twelve years old. Over the years it has been a safe, comfortable, and stimulating refuge in a world that seems to have become less safe and comfortable. Sherlock Holmes represents a time when intellect and cunning triumphed over brute force, media bullying and legal manipulation. Tonight I returned to Baker Street. For an hour Nigel Miles-Thomas made Sherlock Holmes come alive again in an intimate setting. Familiar, yet its own special thing. ... full review

Terrific performance. Nigel Miles-Thomas had full command of the stage and the audience. Nigel's delivery of this one-man play is brilliant. ... full review

SHERLOCK HOLMES was an Icon of MY era (the 20th-century!) so I was pleased to be invited to yesterday's matinee (SAT the 17th), a week earlier than my ticket (NEXT Sat). An amazingly DENSE Dramatization of the entire (imaginary) life of Holmes, and Watson, it is well-served by Brit Nigel Miles-Thomas, who scores the tour-de-force of his five-decade career by taking charge of the entire Holmes canon by himself! (I predict a triumph in August at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival, to which he and the show are headed under the aegis of Fringe Management.)... full review
CHERYL FARIS certified reviewer June 17, 2023
A meandering retrospective through the life and career of Sherlock Holmes & Dr. Watson. A great examination of a great character with a focus on the eminent lack of Watson.... full review
