"This show... has it all... Plenty of good jokes in this show both verbal and physical some bordering on delightful slapstick but who doesn't need a good belly laugh these days?" - Bristol Herald Courier


"Slick classy... it's great fun... This is not the kind of Holmes and Watson thriller where the audience is expected to try to unravel a mystery. There is no way audience members will stumble on the real crime any faster than Sherlock explains it." - Calgary Herald


"Wright's world-premiere play Sherlock Holmes and the American Problem pairs the inimitable Baker Street sleuth with an intrinsically American celebrity: Annie Oakley sharpshooter star of Buffalo Bill's Wild West Show... a nifty faux-historical wrinkle." - The Seattle Times
