Synopsis

"Life Is a Dream" by Pedro Calderón de la Barca is a Spanish Golden Age play. It follows Prince Segismundo, imprisoned from birth due to a prophecy. When freed, he grapples with power, fate, and reality. Through poetic dialogue and philosophical themes, the play explores the nature of existence, illusion, and the human struggle for control. Rich with symbolism and dramatic twists, it delves into the complexities of human nature and the blurred boundaries between dreams and reality.

    Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's most celebrated Sherlock Holmes story gets a gloriously funny makeover.
    When Sir Charles Baskerville is found dead on his estate, with a look of terror still etched on his face, and the paw prints of a gigantic hound beside his body, the great detective Sherlock Holmes is summoned from Baker Street, with Dr Watson in tow, to unravel the mysteries surrounding his death, and investigate the ancient curse of the Hound of the Baskervilles...
    Packed full of the verbal and visual ingenuity that hit comedy team Peepolykus is known for, and offering abundant opportunities for riotous comedy and slapstick, The Hound of the Baskervilles will suit any theatre company looking to dust off their deerstalkers for a sublimely funny adaptation of a classic tale.
    It was adapted by Olivier Award nominees Steven Canny and John Nicholson, and first performed by Peepolykus at the West Yorkshire Playhouse, Leeds, in 2007, before transferring to the West End. It has since become a firm favourite with theatre companies – both professional and amateur – around the world.
    This revised, definitive version of the play was first seen in a revival at Theatre by the Lake, Keswick, in 2024, directed by John Nicholson.

    One of the ‘truths’ about writers is that after a successful first book the agonies of the second devour both time and talent.  For Daniel Sheehan that seems to have been turned on its head.  Rather than go forward it was easier to look back, to dredge rather than furrow, gathering words, lines and phrases from the past and re-fashioning, distilling and evolving poems of simplicity, complexity, light and dark. Sometimes very dark. 
    His work is often characterized by a modern, intimate, and somewhat mysterious style, focusing deeply on the emotional connection between lovers. 
    He is also known as a "modern romantic." Unlike the classical poets who often used complex metaphors, Sheehan’s work is praised for its accessibility and sincerity.
