MAY 5 - JUNE 20 · SAN FRANCISCO PLAYHOUSE
A serious career-oriented doctor, Lane, has hired a quirky Brazilian maid named Matilde. There’s just one problem: Matilde, an aspiring comedienne, would much rather be telling jokes than mopping floors. When Lane is deserted by her husband, she must turn to the women in her life to help her put things back together. Winner of the 2004 Susan Smith Blackburn Prize and a Pulitzer finalist, The Clean House reminds us that there is humor and beauty to be found in life’s most unlikely messes.
