''The Sisters Rosensweig'' is a play by Wendy Wasserstein. The play focuses on three Jewish-American sisters and their lives. It "broke theatrical ground by concentrating on a non-traditional cast of three middle-aged women."〔Herrington, Joan. ''The playwright's muse'' (2002), Routledge, ISBN 0-8153-3779-5, p. 35〕 Wasserstein received the William Inge Award for Distinguished Achievement in American Theatre for this play. ==Production history== The play first opened in April 1992 at the Seattle Repertory Theatre. It premiered Off-Broadway in a Lincoln Center Theater production at the Mitzi Newhouse Theater on October 22, 1992, and closed on February 28, 1993, after 149 performances. Directed by Daniel J. Sullivan, the cast included Jane Alexander and Madeline Kahn. It transferred to Broadway at the Ethel Barrymore Theatre on March 18, 1993, and closed on July 16, 1994, after 556 performances. Again directed by Sullivan, the Broadway cast remained the same as off-Broadway, except that Christine Estabrook took the role of "Pfeni" for Frances McDormand. Notable replacements include Linda Lavin as Gorgeous Teitelbaum and Michael Learned as Sara Goode. 〔(Listing, Broadway ) ibdb.com, accessed March 4, 2015〕 Original Broadway Cast *Sara Goode - Jane Alexander *Gorgeous Teitelbaum - Madeline Kahn *Mervyn Kant - Robert Klein *Pfeni Rosensweig - Christine Estabrook *Nicholas Pym - John Cunningham *Tess Goode - Julie Dretzin *Tom Valiunus - Patrick Fitzgerald *Geoffrey Duncan - John Vickery 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「The Sisters Rosensweig」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
