Sisters Three is ingenious...it's intelligent stuff and performed with verve.’

Lyn Gardner, Stagedoor

‘My favourite shows of this year's festival...have been metatheatrical capers like Sisters Three

Fergus Morgan, The Stage

‘Trios of women recur across Western culture…This second show from TheatreGoose - the…terribly exciting emerging company that impressed at last year’s festival with Her Green Hell - is an absorbing, metatheatrical romp through them all.’

★★★★ The Stage 

‘Last seen at the fringe with excellent solo show Her Green Hell, TheatreGoose is back with another highly physical, female-centred work…A fascinating idea that leads slowly but surely to a glorious sense of empowerment.’

★★★★ The List 


‘TheatreGoose’s Sisters Three is a highly accomplished piece of theatre…wondrously entertaining’

★★★★ NorthWestEnd UK 

‘TheatreGoose’s production goes deeper, unlocking subtextual nuances and unspoken conflicts within the original text. Visually, the production enchants and unsettles. TheatreGoose’s production not only honours its source material but also challenges the audience to reconsider the narratives we inherit and the roles we are expected to play.’

general press

‘a one-woman play about a female fighter pilot...directed by Emma Howlett and starring Letty Thomas. “It's been a goal of mine to work in Europe” says Howlett. She staged the play in Full Circle House, a members' club in Brussels. Despite it being a solo show, Howlett wanted to create something dynamic and physical as possible. The design played a part in this. “I wanted it to feel like an installation,” she says.’

Natasha Tripney, The Stage

‘The English-language production will be directed by Emma Howlett, a talented young director based in London, and stars Letty Thomas in the lead role of the Pilot.’
