Northglenn Arts Presents Phamaly Theatre Company's MISS HOLMES The Ultimate Murder Mystery

Northglenn Arts will present Phamaly Theatre Company's production of Miss Holmes by Christopher M. Walsh, based on characters by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. Phamaly Theatre Company is Denver's premier disability-affirmative theatre company.

“The game is afoot” in this exciting new take on the world's most famous detective! In this unconventional adaptation of the characters we know and love, Miss Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Dorothy Watson must uncover the truth surrounding a pattern of sinister murders in London. When young newlywed Lizzie Chapman begins to receive anonymous messages about her husband, a respected police inspector, insinuating that he is a murderer, only Holmes and Watson can uncover the truth. Inspired by Arthur Conan Doyle's series of masterpieces, this new adaptation re-examines the world of Holmes and Watson through a feminist lens as they attempt to navigate a society that simply will not accept their brilliance.

“A theatre, not only surviving but thriving, for 35 years is virtually unheard of,” states Ben Raanan, Artistic Director. 

“Throughout its years, Phamaly has developed its own brand of art that pushes the boundaries of theatre and disability in America. This season we will be taking risks but doing so with the ingenuity and love you have come to know from YOUR premier disability company, and Miss Holmes will be the first in our 35th anniversary season to push these boundaries—this time using the world's most famous detective.”
