''The Revenge of Sherlock Holmes'' is a musical British play, written by [[Leslie Bricusse]] and directed by [[Janice Freeman]], performed by the ''Thistles Musical Theatre Company'' at the ''Kenneth More Theatre'' (Ilford, UK) from 23 to 26 april 2008, starring [[Dave Bennett]] as [[Sherlock Holmes]] and [[Frazer Freeman]] as [[Dr. Watson]].

What appears at first to be the final confrontation between master detective Sherlock Holmes and his perennial arch-enemy, Professor Moriarty, proves to be more than even Holmes bargained for: he finds himself facing an old-but-new enemy whose determination to outwit and destroy the great detective is even greater than before. The ensuing intellectual cat-and-mouse games between these two larger-than-life figures form the exciting centrepiece of this original musical based on Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's characters.
