The scene unfolds in the familiar surroundings of Sherlock Holmes' sitting room at 221B Baker Street, as the ominous figure of Dr. Grimesby Roylott bursts in, sending a chill down the spine of all present. First produced at the Adelphi Theatre in London on June 4, 1910, this theatrical adaptation of Conan Doyle's short story quickly became a popular sensation.
