My Sister in this House

by Wendy Kesselman / Directed by Carin Bratlie Wethern / June 1–16, 2019
“Tell her to be gentle.”

This award-win­ning dra­ma explores the true sto­ry of two sis­ters who mur­dered their employ­er and her daugh­ter in 1930s France. What drove these two young women, who served as maids in the house­hold, to such a des­per­ate act? Class con­flict, fam­i­ly dys­func­tion, lone­li­ness, and love all play a role in this com­plex and dev­as­tat­ing tale.

Performing at:

The Crane Theater
2303 Kennedy St. NE #120
Min­neapo­lis, MN 55413

Press

“Wicked­ly enter­tain­ing… Almost like part­nered dancers, Feld and Mor­gan cre­ate a sense of the sis­ters as a sin­gle enti­ty, a roil­ing bun­dle of hos­til­i­ty that will even­tu­al­ly explode.”

– Chris Hewitt, Star Tri­bune

 

 

“The show is a brac­ing dose of counter-sea­son­al horror.”

– Jay Gabler, City Pages
