The Near Sisters: Now Available!
In 1982, Holly, Timothy and Laurel created a show that they performed only twice: at Zellerbach Hall in Berkeley and at Royce Hall in Los Angeles. They combined songs, sketches and good old fashioned play. Assisted by long-time friend, pianist and arranger Jeff Langley, bass player Carrie Barton, and keyboard artist Adrienne Torf, the show was a grand hit.
Recently, boxes of tapes in storage revealed film of the first show in Berkeley as well as rehearsals of both shows. Now restored and edited, this live performance is captured on USB or is available for streaming or download.
