The Clean House by Sarah Ruhl
Quirky Comedy
Lane, a busy, career-minded doctor, likes her life organized and her house clean. The only problem is she has hired a Brazilian maid who hates to clean and longs to be a comedienne. While the maid works to create the perfect joke, Lane’s sister secretly takes over the cleaning. But things get really messy when Lane’s husband finds his soul mate - and it’s not Lane. This wryly funny, wonderfully original comedy is a whimsical and deeply moving look at personal change, love and the beauty in life’s messes.
