The pair have been working on SisterS for almost a decade
You would be forgiven for thinking Susan Stanley and Sarah Goldberg are actual sisters. “We get that a lot recently,” Sarah tells VIP Magazine as we chat.
SisterS tells the story of two women who find that they have the same estranged father and while they couldn’t be more different, they team up to find him.Hi Sarah and Susan. Congratulations on the show! First off, how did you set about writing SisterS?Well we have been friends for almost 20 years, 19 years to be exact. We met in theatre school all those years ago. We were writing some short, very dramatic plays at that time. We were very, very pretentious.
Sarah: We’re a cautionary tale of what happens when you spend too much time with your best friend. [Laughs] We had an interview the other day and the journalist was like, “Are you aware that you’re dressed the same? And that you’re starting to talk the same?” We spend a lot of time together! We have been very lucky because we wanted to tell our own story and experiences. To be able to do all of it to a finished production is blowing our minds.
But I always say you don’t have to like her, you have to know her. We are so willing to watch unlikeable men, men do terrible things on television and nobody bats an eyelid. Everybody loves Tony Soprano! With a so-called messy woman, I’ve read some things that are like “Is the messy woman trope over?” Over? She’s just arrived. And she’s f**king here to stay!
