Holmes and Watson

A Witty Whodunit Worth Watching: Holmes and Watson
If you’re a fan of Sherlock Holmes, clever twists, and a touch of theatrical flair, Holmes and Watson by Jeffrey Hatcher is the play for you. It’s a thrilling blend of intrigue, humor, and the signature brain-teasing deductions we’ve come to expect from the world’s greatest consulting detective.
The play plunges us into a stormy asylum where Dr. Watson is summoned to identify which of three inmates claiming to be Holmes is the real one—or if any of them are.
The playright’s writing is sharp, blending traditional Holmesian intellect with modern pacing. The audience will be constantly kept on their toes, trying to piece together clues alongside Watson. Red herrings abound, and just when you think you’ve solved the mystery, the play pulls the rug out from under you with a twist that will leave you grinning in admiration.
The cast which includes, Patrick Bugby, Robert DelGrande, David Bird, Chrystine Williams, Rob Millard, Michael Couchman and Garry Welsh skillfully embodies the essence of Holmes’ enigmatic genius and Watson’s steadfast loyalty. The supporting cast adds humor and depth and just enough tension to keep you glued to your seats.
Holmes and Watson is not just a play; it’s a masterclass in storytelling that pays homage to Arthur Conan Doyle while carving its own unique niche. Whether you’re a die-hard Holmes fan or a newcomer to the detective’s adventures, this play promises a memorable night of wit, mystery, and unexpected revelations.
Don’t miss it—elementary, my dear theater goers!

Waiting for the Parade
- May 1-4 and 8-11
May 1,2,8 & 9 at 7.30pm
May 3,4,10 & 11 at 2.00pm
Waiting for the Parade is a Canadian drama by John Murrell. Set in Calgary during World War II, the play focuses on five women left behind while their husbands, sons, and loved ones are off fighting. Rather than depicting the war itself, the play examines its impact on those at home, revealing the emotional, social, and political struggles they face.
The narrative unfolds through a series of interconnected vignettes, blending dialogue with music from the era to evoke the atmosphere of wartime Canada. The women, each with their own perspectives and challenges, work together in a volunteer war effort while navigating personal hardships.
The play explores how war affects different aspects of civilian life. Some women are deeply committed to supporting the war effort, while others question its costs. Through humor, conflict, and moments of solidarity, Waiting for the Parade paints a complex and deeply human portrait of life on the home front.
The title reflects the idea of waiting—both for news from the battlefield and for the war to end—while also suggesting the bittersweet nature of war’s victories and losses. By focusing on the women’s experiences, Murrell provides a fresh perspective on World War II, one that is both uniquely Canadian and universally resonant.
