The Case of the Transforming Detective
Program Overview

The Story
We open our play in the office of Cherluck Bones and her assistant Dr. Wattson. Dr. Wattson is worried because he has not seen Bones all week. Then Dr. Wattson receives a message from the notorious Dr. Boyardi. Dr. Boyardi has taken Cherluck Bones hostage and will only release her if the clever Dr. Wattson can follow a series of energy clues. After an exhausting journey and a visit with Monsoon Mason and Dr. Riddle, Wattson learns about natural gas and electricity - how they are used and how to use them safely.

Will the information he has learned help him solve the mystery and find Cherluck Bones?
