All children who register will be cast in the show.

Come audition for a fun mystery featuring the great detective Sherlock Holmes and the equally famous biographical Dr. Watson. Sherlock faces a foe who is willing to blackmail the Queen of England to take over all of England. This job is too big for Sherlock alone; he will need the reliable and dependable group of junior sleuths known as the Baker Street Irregulars to help. There are many fun roles to try out for. All those auditioning need to bring a short monologue to present. The monologue doesn’t need to be memorized, but those auditioning need to show a variety of emotions when performing monologue.
