What's it About?

Love. Death. Housecleaning. All are celebrated in the 2005 Pulitzer Prize finalist The Clean House, a brilliant, innovative comedy by America's hottest young playwright, Sarah Ruhl. Lane is a highly successful physician. She has been married for years to a charming, handsome, and equally successful husband. They live in a beautiful home in an affluent neighborhood. Lane has it all-or does she? Her eccentric sister, Virginia, is completely obsessed with housecleaning. Lane's Brazilian cleaning lady hates to clean, but she loves to tell jokes and aspires to become a comedian. Dust flies when Lane's husband makes a sudden decision that turns her world upside down. Only then does she learn the healing power of a good joke.
