I Wear My Dead Sister's Clothes, written and performed by Amy Schwabauer, is an autobiographical dark comedy about what it means to love and grieve a difficult person. While cleaning out her deceased sister's house, Amy sorts through the messy baggage of their relationship and asks herself the tough questions, like why did her sister need four identical dish drainers? Loss haunts Amy as she empties out every closet, but laughs come just as easily as tears when she wears her dead sister's clothes.
