Written by recent Jane Chambers Playwriting Award-winner Meryl Cohn, "And Sophie Comes Too" follows the three Abramowitz sisters and their mother Sophie, who may or may not wake from a coma before her daughters take control of their increasingly chaotic lives.

Rose, the straight suburban mom, has swept a few too many secrets under the rug. And Sandra is in the process of becoming a man!TOSOS co-founder and artistic director Mark Finely, set to helm "Penny Penniworth" Off-Broadway this fall, directs "And Sophie Comes Too."AND SOPHIE COMES TOO runs for 5 performances only, as part of the 13th Annual New York International Fringe Festival, at The Cherry Pit Theater (155 Bank Street).
