The Belgrade Theatre will play host to Sir Arthur Conan Doyle 's most celebrated adventure, The Hound of the Baskervilles, next month.

Running from Tuesday 8 to Saturday 12 on the theatre 's main stage, the production is presented by Original Theatre Company and Octagon Theatre Bolton.

Adapted for the stage by Steven Canny and John Nicholson for Peepolykus, The Hound of the Baskervilles is directed on tour by Tim Jackson (The Season, Royal & Derngate, New Wolsey, Treasure Island, Bolton Octagon), with original direction from Lotte Wakeham (Artistic Director of Octagon Theatre Bolton).

A hit in the West End, this adaptation combines an exhilarating collision of farce, theatrical invention and comic performances to offer a new twist on the famous detective story.

With rumours of a cursed giant hound loose on the moors, they must act fast in order to save the Baskerville family 's last remaining heir.
