"The humor and physicality don't just help lighten what would otherwise be a devastatingly heavy show, but also help make discussing death more accessible.

Schwabauer's vulnerability and honesty is as brave as it is impactful; for, no matter how you choose to cope with grief, you will walk away from this show knowing that you are not alone. "
-Gwendolyn Kochur, Scene<https://www.clevescene.com/arts/arts-stories-and-interviews/cpts-i-wear-my-dead-sisters-clothes-is-a-poignant-picture-of-grief/>

"This show is a love letter to someone who has passed as well as part of the healing process needed to move on.
It is a well constructed study of life." -Mark Horning<https://misterh215.wixsite.com/mysite/single-post/cleveland-public-theatre-s-i-wear-my-dead-sister-s-clothes-is-a-concise-study-on-grief?dm_t=0,0,0,0,0>, Cleveland Critic's Circle

Winner of the "Char and Chuck Fowler Audience Choice Award," Borderlight Theatre Festival (2024)
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.
