MY SISTER

Two sisters go to desperate lengths in childhood to escape their abusive family home—then return to the consequences of their actions in adulthood.

My Sister was created for the Edinburgh Fringe Festival in 2012, and invited to the Scottish Mental Health Arts and Film Festival in Glasgow later that year.

'A fascinating glimpse into the dynamics of two people growing up, making decisions and keeping a secret.'

'The execution is tantalising and strong in its minimalism, and the passionate acting keeps the audience’s heart racing in suspense. My Sister is guaranteed to compel and agitate, promising a bright future for Philippi, Conway and Scandal Theatre.'
