TheVagabond Players are getting set to return to the stage for the first time in more than three years.

The community theatre company hasn’t staged a play at the Bernie LeggeTheatre since the COVID-19 pandemic hit in March 2020. Now, at last, it’s back — and anyone who wants to join the fun is invited to audition for its 2022/23 season opener.

The company will be staging Sherlock’sVeiled Secret in October, and auditions are being on Aug. 7 and 8.

K.C. Brown’s play is set in 1920 and tells the story of Violet Sheridan, a sculptress who is asked to meet with the now-retired Sherlock Holmes. Holmes informs her they have a family connection and asks her to join him in solving a troubling blackmail case — but she refuses and decides to solve it for herself.

The company is auditioning for all parts, and “credible English accents” will be required.

“We welcome everyone to join us, and experience isn’t a prerequisite at all,” said producer Bev Pride.

Pride welcomes newcomers to come out to the Vagabond Players and experience the joy of theatre — whether it’s through being onstage or by taking part in another crew or volunteer capacity.

“We welcome you and will give you a job, mentor you, praise your efforts and support you learning more theatre skills,” she said.

Most of all, Pride says, it’s time to celebrate being able to stage a live performance again.

“There’s nothing like live performances, sharing a story with someone other than our cats,” she said. “Live theatre is truly the best of these shared experiences, because you never know what’s going to happen.”

The company prefers that all members of the cast and crew are fully vaccinated.

Sherlock’sVeiled Secret will run for 10 shows from Thursday, Oct. 6 to Saturday, Oct. 22.

Rehearsals will be held Sundays,Tuesdays and Thursdays from 7 to 10 p.m. starting Aug. 22.

Auditions will be held by appointment on Sunday, Aug. 7 and Monday, Aug. 8 between 7 and 10 p.m. at the Bernie Legge Theatre in Queen’s Park. Email bep850@gmail.com or text 604-240-5915.
