Review: David Stuart Davies's play Sherlock Holmes: The Last Act is a script that reads well, weaving Conan Doyle and Davies seamlessly together, and giving the reader a glimpse of Holmes the flawed but triumphant human being.

It's a more successful play than either Martyn Read's 221B or Jeremy Paul's The Secret of Sherlock Holmes, excellent though those two are.
