Super-sleuth Sherlock Holmes investigates the latest crimes this month in Anchorage, confronting his nemesis and matching wits with his one true love. Anchorage Community Theatre's production, "Sherlock Holmes, The Final Adventure," runs Thursdays through Sundays through May 20 at 133 E. 70th Ave., off the Old Seward Highway.
