Produktbeschreibung
Sisters Sissy and Yewina have been on their own for who knows how long exactly. It's just them (and their hens) in a weathered farmhouse miles from town. Their rural, woodsy East Coast community has been losing residents for years, but the almost-forgotten stories have lived on for the sisters in different ways. While Yewina is more guarded and level-headed, dreamer Sissy has a flair for twisting fact with fantasy. When Scott, a folklorist from Scottsdale, Arizona, shows up at their door in hopes of chronicling whispers, he's in for much more of a story than he expected. This unique and quirky ode to folklore storytelling illuminates how we can enjoy living with our own truths in order to leave a memorable legacy behind.
Autorenporträt
Mary-Colin Chisholm has written a dozen plays and more sketches than she can shake a schtick at. Her plays have had multiple productions across the country. Recent work includes Half-Cracked: The Legend of Sissy Mary, A Belly Full (with Marcia Kash), By the Dark of the Moon, To Capture Light, and--based on her hit CBC Radio series--He'd Be Your Father's Mother's Cousin. Whenever she can she lives in a shack by the sea in Jimtown, Nova Scotia, where there's nothing to do and she's more than happy to do it.
