Mount Vernon, IA -MVLCT will launch their 2024 Season with Ms. Watson & Ms. Holmes- Apt. 2B Feb 2-4 and 9-10. An irreverent, darkly comic, modern take on Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s famous sleuth and sidekick, this fast-paced romp re-examines the world’s most famous detective story with a bold new feminist lens. In this highly theatrical, small-cast escapade, oddball female roommates Sherlock (yes, it’s also a girl’s name—wait, is it a girl’s name? Is it even a name?) Holmes & Joan Watson join forces to emerge from pandemic fog as a deeply codependent, quasi-dysfunctional Odd Couple adventure duo—solving mysteries and kicking butts, until they come face to face with a villain who seems to have all of the answers.
This production is PG-13 and runs approximately 2 hours with an intermission. The full cast list and additional show details are available here. Ticket price is $25 for adults, with student and senior discounts available. An ASL interpreted performance will take place on Feb 4th.
Tickets for each show are available at mvlct.com.
