Press Quotes
“While it might be politically correct to classify THREE MORE SISTERS as a ‘women’s drama,’ let’s just call it great fun. This sixty-minute comedy-drama will appeal not only to sisters but to anyone who has felt the pains of sibling rivalry, including those who have escaped into adulthood. THREE MORE SISTERS is a romp through the stages of sisterhood and a real showcase for three versatile actresses. As a bonus, SISTERS will introduce young performers and their audiences to a number of theatrical allusions — from Shakespeare to The Brady Bunch. It’s quite a stretch, but it works … This is a demanding play, calling for a great variety of dialects and emotions. But, as I mentioned earlier, THREE MORE SISTERS features three gem roles for women.” —Dan Blegen, Dramatics Magazine
“Jet-powered by Stewart-Brown’s sturdy script … THREE MORE SISTERS spins out a volatile yarn of sibling rivalry throughout the ages. Brown’s work puts the classics and pop culture on a collision course with one another by way of what can only be described as literary sampling.” —Matthew Cibellis, The Washington Blade
