It is December 1936, and Broadway star William Gillette, admired the world over for his leading role in the play Sherlock Holmes, has invited his fellow cast members to his Connecticut castle for a weekend of revelry. But when one of the guests is stabbed to death, the festivities in this isolated house of tricks and mirrors quickly turn dangerous. It is then up to Gillette himself, as he assumes the persona of his beloved Holmes, to track down the killer before the next victim appears. The danger and hilarity are non-stop in this glittering whodunit set during the Christmas holidays. Auditioners are asked to prepare a short, 1-2 minute, contemporary monologue. Actors of all ethnicities and gender identities are encouraged to audition and all roles are available: William Gillette (male 35-50), Martha Gillette (female 60-80), Simon Bright (male 20’s), Aggie Wheeler (female 20’s), Felix Geisel (male 40-50), Madge Geisel (female 40-50), Daria Chase (female 30-60), Inspector Goring (female 30-60).
