    A beautiful play about loss and the pressure that comes with being "gifted." Really enjoyed reading this play!

    This highly theatrical play is grounded in its complex characters and their love for each other. It's deeply moving and filled with surprising moments throughout. I love how we get to see the sleight of hand play out on stage and how sleight of hand is deployed as a metaphor as well. The Magician's Sister is about female magicians, sisters, father-daughter/mother-daughter relationships, suffocating expectations placed on others and ourselves, processing trauma and forgiveness. This is sure to be a massive crowd pleaser and truly deserves many productions!

    A memory play with the repetitious rhythm of a folk parable. The use of magic/escape artistry would be a lot of fun to see staged, and I particularly love the idea of the unseen escape artist in the background, demonstrating the tricks during the characters conversations. Ominous and rigorously researched -- female magicians are bizarrely underrepresented in the field and I appreciated the opportunity to learn more.

    A stunning theatrical experience with plenty of magic, surprises, and twists. Brandli has a command of the stage with complex characters and juicy roles for actors. Entertaining as well as poignant.
