T-Sisters

Rachel, Chloe and Erika Tietjen together form the trio called the T-Sisters. From a young age, these veritable siblings came together to create original tunes and write original dramatic works.

Throughout the years, the eccentricities of youth blossomed into the creative energies that have given birth to ‘A Murmured Tale,’ as well as a plethora of indepedent performances given by the T-Sisters in various Bay Area locations.

Chloe, the youngest of the three, uses her love of Greek mythology and proclivity for creative writing to shape the lyrics and lines of the T-Sisters’ works. A Literature major from UC Santa Cruz, Chloe dabbled in poetry and prose from many different genres, and enjoys crafting verses imbued with mythological proportions.

Rachel, the middle sister, wields the power of physical creation. A graduate of MICA, Maryland Institute and College of Art, Rachel has enjoyed forays into many different types of artistic creations, and now dazzles audiences with her gleaming, exciting costumes and animated set designs. Rachel creates theatrical landscapes and costumes that command audiences to sustain an important contradiction:the simultaneous recognition that they are watching the theater and its mechanics, and the sense of engagement and abandonment to another reality.

Erika, the eldest sister, left college with a degree in Russian language and literature, which she promptly packed with her on a plane to St. Petersburg. She was seduced back to the states by the prospect of performing in and continuing the evolution of ‘A Murmured Tale.’ Erika revels in the musical facet of the production, and harmonies are her bag, baby. Stay tuned for the infiltration of Russian lyrics into the show…

Despite the previous taxonomizing, the T-Sisters share all joys and charges of the show and of their musical group.
