Winner of the 1993 Outer Critics Circle award for Best Broadway Play, Wasserstein’s hit comedy is about the reunion of three Jewish sisters who come together for a visit, and the joys and struggles they share concerning romance, careers, childhood, and family.
The play is produced in association with the Eugene & Elinor Friend Center for the Arts of the Jewish Community Center San Francisco.

I am interested in setting up a theater party for our Hadassah group in Fresno. Please send me information on The Sisters Rosensweig - cost of tickets,etc. Since we need to travel from Fresno and back in one day we are interested in a Sunday matinee. Is this possible?
Saw the play tonight, Jan 14. On the way home, Laine commented on how much and how well Jewish angst was portrayed; and how much the focus was on intelligence and beauty, but strikingly absent was any thought of spirituality.
Also, that in the early part of the play, Joel noted that the characters felt thin, but by the end, he felt so at home with them that he was sorry the play was over and that the characters would go away.
Thank you so much for bringing this important work to us here in San Francisco. Funny, but it’s the one play we’ve referred to often in the past 18 years, but had never seen. It truly occupies a special place in our collective consciousness.
