Come audition for our next theatrical production: Miss Holmes Returns! You may attend either or both auditions sessions. Please be available for callbacks. WOH staff will notify candidates who are being called back.

A nurse and activist finds herself on the run, wanted for murder. Pursued by authorities who choose to ignore a clear case of self-defense due to her Indian heritage and influence from sinister figures from the shadowy criminal underworld, she turns to Miss Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Dorothy Watson for help.

Miss Holmes Returns is theatrical “fan fiction” that explores feminist themes using the characters, settings and tropes created by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle to investigate the added challenges and risks faced by these iconic characters if they were women, while also examining the intersections of sexism, classism and racism.

Performance Dates: August 30 & 31 and September 6 & 7 at 7:30 and September 1 & 8 at 2:00.

In January 2020, the Waterville Opera House presented Miss Holmes. A stand-alone story, Miss Holmes Returns is the follow-up to that production.
