My Sister

I LOVED this show. Beautiful, committed performances, very timely topic and so much heart. I'd support an extension of this show. Everyone should see it!... full review

Not only a great Fringe show, one of the best theatre experiences I've had in years! The vulnerability of the actresses in their performances was amazing. The physicality of the disabled sister was spot-on and never over-affected. Highly recommend... full review

DAMN. This show is really something. The writing is witty, heartbreaking, and flows quickly, dropping you right into 1934 Berlin without much exposition-- so there were references flying by that I didn't understand, but it was refreshing.

This play and its creators will have none of that. And a hearty bravo to them for reminding the lucky ones who saw them that theatre can be more than ... full review

Wonderful, touching, poignant and pointed - especially in today's increasingly polarized society. The care and heart both Elizabeth and Emily put into this piece showed with every word. I cannot wait to see both where they take this, and what they do next. ... full review
