Henriette wishes to marry the man she adores. Is that so much to ask? Apparently so for this trio: her overbearing matriarchal mother; her intellectual, sexless sister and her downright randy aunt. These "learned ladies" have quite the different suitor in mind in the shape of a pompous, bombastic and self-proclaimed 'genius' of poetry. Her downtrodden father is adamant to support Henriette in her choice of husband and so the war begins in hilarious and ridiculous fashion.
Set in a lavish Paris salon during the late 1980's, THE SISTERHOOD is Ranjit Bolt's adaptation of Molière's classic satire Les Femmes Savantes. This fast-paced and intelligent comedy, satirising a family of pseudo-intellectual pontificating women, will keep you laughing throughout!
