Wheaton Drama, Inc (WDI) has cast the Steven Dietz adaptation of Sherlock Holmes: The Final Adventure.

Sherlock Holmes: The Final Adventure is set in Victorian England in a tidy flat at 221B Baker Street, and other locations. You don’t have to be a scholar of detective stories to enjoy the script Steven Dietz has crafted—there is enough intrigue and adventure, even a touch of romance with the inclusion of Holmes’ intellectual equal, Irene Adler.

Don’t Panic, It’s Just A Technical Issue

Thursday, October 25th, 2012

We do love technology and websites, but sometimes, little problems creep into the works. In case you are worrying that you may have missed our performances of Sherlock Holmes: The Final Adventure, Full Circle, and Into The Woods, there’s no need to panic. These shows will be performed in 2013. We should have the little date issue on this site correctly shortly. Thank you!
