Main Street Theatre Works Celebrates Their 10th Summer Season

Main Street Theatre Works continues to celebrate their 10th Summer Season at the Kennedy Mine Amphitheatre in Jackson with Sherlock’s Last Case, by Charles Marowitz.

Performances are Friday and Saturday nights from August 9th through September 7th.  Doors open at 6:30 for picnics, show starts at 8:00.

Patrons are encouraged to come early with their picnics, chairs and jackets. The Kennedy Mine Amphitheatre is located on North Main Street in Jackson, next to the Country Squire Motel.

The setting for the amphitheatre is truly spectacular. Located on the historic Kennedy Mine property, patrons walk past an old tailing wheel (used when the mine was in operation), across an old bridge, into a grass-covered terraced bowl, surrounded by majestic oaks. There the stage is set for picnicking and enjoying professional quality productions. You are truly sitting on a gold mine, enjoying live theatre under the stars.

Main Street Theatre Works is a professionally oriented theatre company, performing in the heart of Amador County. Now in their 19th season, and their 10th at the Kennedy Mine Amphitheatre, MSTW continues to be dedicated to bringing professional and community theatre artists together to produce classical and contemporary plays, striving for a balance that stimulates both artists and audiences.

Sherlock’s Last Case puts the great detective, Sherlock Holmes, in the center of the action, when he receives a death threat from the son of his late nemesis, Professor Moriarty. The plot then twists and turns until Holmes finds himself imprisoned in a dank cellar and left to die. But this is classic Sherlock, so there are always surprises and, in Sherlock’s Last Case, lots of laughs, all leading to a stunning final twist that will surely catch you by complete and breath-stopping surprise.
