...young, and you're smart. You've got the rest of your political life spreading out before you like a giant, blue-coded electoral map. It'll be tough at first, of course, those initial weeks after the decision. You'll probably feel an inexplicable urge to shake strangers' hands, drink bad coffee, sleep for three hours a night.

Teresa, played by Emily Knapp '03, is perhaps the most likeable of the sisters; it's a shame that she has to spend so much of the play intoxicated. The most successfully genuine moments of the play center around the reminiscences of Teresa and her husband, Frank (David Modigliani '02), as they describe their early courtship. Catherine (Lisa Faiman '03), the youngest sister, appears to be a walking stereotype...
