If you are listed with a talent agency,supporting the agency is important to your career and their existence. Answering internet postings "need talent for TV work, re-enactments, spokesperson, print, etc" usually means cheap/free and could be dangerous for you. We work with independent filmmakers but if the company that lists these posts make money, so should you as the professional and at the standard rate for that market and job. Don't loose out for all of us.  Support your agency!

Directed by Patrick McCray
Winner of the Louis B. Mayer Award. Created by an American-born playwright-director who has become one of the most celebrated figures in the modern British theatre, this diabolically clever (and frequently funny) play was first presented as part of the Olympic Arts Festival in Los Angeles and went to Broadway in 1987. It was produced at the Nederlander Theatre with Frank Langella as Sherlock Holmes and Donal Donnelly as Doctor Watson.
Illuminating aspects to the master sleuth's character heretofore ignored, the play is both true to the spirit of the original and a totally fresh and absorbing theatrical excursion.
"Sherlock's Last Case is certainly a wonder … throwing social consciousness to the wind and simply entertaining an audience with a delightful theatrical sleight-of-hand."
 LA Daily News
"Part spoof, part loving tribute and all fun…"
 The Register
"…the play combines light, occasionally absurd, humor with all the twists and turns of a first-rate whodunit."
 Hollywood Progress
NOTE: This production contains brief pipe smoking
and occasional gunshots.
It may be hot outside, but TKD is cooler than it's ever been! We installed new seating and ceiling fans over the summer to improve your theatre-going experience. "Thank you!" to all our patrons who have supported us over the years. We're working hard to make TKD as inviting and enjoyable as possible.
