Synopsis
The problem seems simple: The cleaning lady won't clean. And Lane, a brilliant, successful doctor living in a large home in "metaphysical Connecticut," solves it the only way she knows how--by giving her anti-depressants. Little does she know that Matilde, the young Brazilian woman who has left her country because her parents died from laughter, won't clean because she is searching for the perfect joke. She discovers this on the same day that she realizes her older sister Virginia is cleaning for Matilde and that her husband Charles is leaving her for one of his patients, an older Argentine woman named Ana. When Charles brings Ana home to meet Lane, Ana decides to hire Matilde as well. When Ana's cancer returns, Charles leaves for Alaska searching for a yew tree that will save her, and Matilde asks Lane to be Ana's doctor. A 2004 Pulitzer Prize Finalist, The Clean House by MacArthur Genius winner Sarah Ruhl is a hilarious and touching comedy about love, loyalty, loss and of course, cleanliness.
