    About this ebook

    ‘You can’t pick your family but if you could I’d still pick you.’

    Sisters Connie and Ursula were once everything to each other. Years on, they're almost strangers.

    When a family bombshell is dropped, Connie is forced to retrace forty years of sisterhood and confront a web of secrets and conflicting loyalties.

    Spanning four decades, Chloë Moss's play Run Sister Run is a witty and heartfelt story of family, class and dependence. It was first produced in 2020 by Paines Plough, Sheffield Theatres and Soho Theatre, directed by Charlotte Bennett, Joint Artistic Director of Paines Plough.
