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?
