The Sisters Rosensweig

Mar 9 - Mar 25, 2007

Main Season

Sara Goode, an enormously successful American woman working as the British representative of a major Hong Kong bank, is about to celebrate her fifty-fourth birthday, and she isn't exactly too happy about it. For the birthday celebration, her two sisters, Gorgeous Teitelbaum (doctor, loving housewife and mother who has her own call-in radio advice program and hopes to make the leap to TV), and Pfeni Rosensweig (peripatetic third-world travel writer, alas, unmarried), are expected to arrive at any moment. As if this weren't causing Sara enough stress, Mervyn Kant shows up at her door who is instantly smitten with her. Mervyn is a furrier, and the on again, off again, bi-sexual lover of Pfeni. After her sisters arrive for the celebration, Sara’s daughter Tess, and her boyfriend, Tom, turn up and advise her that they're planning on rushing off to his ancestral Lithuania for reasons of political protest. Next to arrive is Nicholas, the stuffy Brit whom Sara has been "seeing" although he seems somewhat anti-Semitic. All of this adds up to a rather interesting evening, which leads to unexpected romance, suspected partings, recriminations, reconciliations and, above all, newfound love and acceptance.
