Kate Hamill’s Ms. Holmes + Ms. Watson, Apt 2B is a darkly comic, modern, and feminist spin on Sherlock Holmes and Watson as codependent roommates.
“Kate Hamill’s adaptations of the classics are endlessly ingenious … whatever she decides to do, it will be worth seeing.”
–The Wall Street Journal’s 2017 Playwright of the Year
Ms. Holmes + Ms. Watson, Apt 2B is 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.
