PATRICIA HODGE, ELEANOR BRON
AND OLIVER COTTON STAR IN

THE CLEAN HOUSE

PRIOR TO THE WEST END

Lane, a highly successful doctor, seems to have it all; a beautiful home, a busy and fulfilling job and a devoted husband, but when she hires a young Brazilian woman, Matilde, as a cleaner, her comfortable life begins to unravel in strange and surprising ways. Why is her sister always in the house? Why is the new cleaner so unhappy? Whose underwear is that in her husband’s closet? And just what exactly is the ‘perfect joke’?

Two of the Britain’s finest actresses, Patricia Hodge and Eleanor Bron, lead a star cast in this sparkling new comedy by sensational new playwright and Pulitzer prize-nominee, Sarah Ruhl.

Described by the New York Times as “visionary, tinged with fantasy, extravagant in feeling, maybe a little nuts”, THE CLEAN HOUSE is a powerful tale of betrayal and forgiveness, of heart-breaking loss and impetuous love which gives a top-notch cast the chance to shine!

‘One of the finest and funniest plays you’re likely to see’ New York Times

‘A play that sparkles…a pleasure from start to finish’ The Times
