Abstract
My sister’s Keeper is a play that aims to pinpoint the long-term care dilemmas in Taiwan. The play is comprised of seven parts: (1) Nessun Dorma; (2) Toys; (3) The Possibility of Love; (4) Inheritance; (5) Maria; (6)Bad Guy; (7) Children. Each part develops with potential “keepers” of the protagonist, which echoes the name of the play. From her grandma to her little sister, from a social worker to a foreign caretaker, the protagonist has tried to find an ideal caregiver in vain. After all the possible caregivers left her, the story ends with her younger sister’s returning home, providing a faint glimmer for the heroine.
