Clues in 'The Mask of Moriarty' lead to a zany time

Post Gazette: In "The Mask of Moriarty," the late playwright Hugh Leonard has played upon the comic potential of iconic characters, influenced as much by Benny Hill as he is Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. The thick London fog pouring onto the stage as the play opens can't mask the satiric intentions as Sherlock Holmes faces off, so to speak, with his arch nemesis Moriarty.
