Three Sistahs

MetroStage
1201 North Royal Street Alexandria

An elegant intimate musical by Thomas W. Jones II, which exposes the souls of three strong women, Olive, Marsha and Irene, when they gather at the family home and reflect on the promise of the future, while revealing the pain of the present and their regrets of the past. A rich musical tapestry. An evening of gospel, rhythm & blues, and funk: all original music by William Hubbard. Inspired by Chekhov.

"...But all that is subsidiary to the music — gospel, funk and rhythm-and-blues, exhilaratingly sung in this “Three Sistahs” iteration by Bernardine Mitchell, Roz White and Ashley Ware Jenkins. From the moment in which these splendid performers make their entrance, buoyantly parading down the aisle as they sing a gospel number titled “In My Father’s House,” you’re always on tenterhooks waiting for another song. By contrast with the score, the heartstring-tugging script (whose story is inspired by Chekhov’s “Three Sisters”) feels earnest and schematic."

"...In its third incarnation of Three Sistahs, MetroStage Artistic Director Carolyn Griffin has a gift that keeps on giving, with this cast producing a powerhouse show that rocks the house and likely bring it down in this, their 30th anniversary."

Three Sistahs, returning to MetroStage from a run in 2007, contains all of these heart-breaking objects and mixes them with rollicking comedy in a high-tempo musical that does Anton Chekhov proud.
