My Sister in This House

A play by

“Based on an historical incident in Le Mans in 1933 whose solitary and bizarre violence shocked French bourgeois society and inspired Genet’s THE MAIDS, MY SISTER IN THIS HOUSE is a remarkable play about the interwoven lives of four extraordinary women. It has been performed widely in the United States, where it won the prestigious 1981 Susan Smith Blackburn Prize.” – Hampstead Theatre advertising copy, 1987
