Sherlock, but make it chaotic, codependent, and completely reimagined. 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. 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…
