Nate the Great is the sharpest kid detective ever to solve his neighborhood’s mysteries. With his trench coat, Sherlock Holmes hat, his trusty dog Sludge, and his friend Rosamond, he sets out to investigate important cases—important to a youngster, that is. Plus he always remembers to leave his mom a note, wear his galoshes, and make it home in time for pancakes.
Pamela Sterling has adapted this comic mystery from the famous NATE THE GREAT series of books by the award-winning Marjorie Weinman Sharmat. With jazz music in the backgound and with the style of adult detectives in the movies and television, Nate and his friends use their brains and their problem-solving skills to find out answers to kid’s questions. They also learn a little science along the way. Besides being funny, this play encourages critical thinking skills.
