SEEKING THE FOLLOWING ROLES:

SHERLOCK
(late 30s-early 40’s): Caucasian man. Energetic and intelligent. For him, life is a Rubik’s cube to be solved, a daily exercise in acute observation and algorithm solving. Nothing escapes his mental arsenal, and often the information comes in handy later. He is dashing, an eccentric of strong convictions, sometimes comically so. Role calls for broad emotional range and comic chops. English accent.

MAN 1
(mid – late 30’s): Any Ethnicity. Plays MULTIPLE ECCENTRIC ROLES, including Dr. Mortimer, Barrymore, Stapleton, Falstaff. Strong character development, commitment, vocal/physical range outline this role. Strong comedic chops a must. Accents: English, Castillian, Scottish, Cockney.

MAN 2
(mid – late 30’s): Any Ethnicity. Plays MULTIPLE roles, including Sir Henry Baskerville and Inspector Lestrade. A man’s man, capable of both comedy and romance. Accents: Southern (Texas), English, Cockney.

NOTE: WE ENCOURAGE ACTORS OF ALL ETHNICITIES TO SUBMIT THEMSELVES.
