Admission Free. Bodega, John Street, Waterford.

The world¹s greatest fictional detective confronts the most complex case of all - his own psyche.

Drawn from Sussex retirement for the funeral of his friend, Dr. Watson, Holmes returns to Baker Street to resolve Othe last act¹ of his epic career. The play explores the complex terrain of Holmes¹ unique intellect, revealing startling secrets and skeletons, and taking us into the mind of Othe man, not the thinking machine¹. ³Roger Llewellyn precisely embodies Sherlock, his bellicose, boozing father & the evil Moriarty...Conan Doyle would have approved.² Time Out, London. 8pm, tickets: f12.50 (f10 conc) Friends of Garter Lane: f10.

September 30 to October 1
Jimmy Joyced!
Written & performed by Donal O¹Kelly. JJ Staines looks back at 1904, a rough gruff bric-a-brac stallholder in Portobello Market with a dangerous obsession for all things Joycean. JJ drives like a man possessed through the full gamut of 1904 Joyce - from his fraught 22nd birthday in February, until his departure from Ireland with Nora Barnacle in October. In between is the frantic topsy-turvy hurly-burly of a young life lived to the full: - his war with his mad dad; his bronze medal win for singing in the Feis; the crazy night of gunfire in the Sandycove Tower; his rescue from the mayhem in Monto and, most important of all, his passion for Nora Barnacle and their fabled walk on 16th June. 8pm, tickets: f12.50 (f10 conc & Friends of Garter Lane). Garter Lane Arts Centre, O¹Connell Street, Waterford.
