The Clean House at Hofstra University - Joan and Donald Schaeffer Black Box Theater

THE CLEAN HOUSE by Sarah Ruhl Directed by Jennifer Hart The Clean House takes place in what the author describes as "metaphysical Connecticut," mostly in the home of a married couple who are both doctors. They have hired a housekeeper named Matilde, an aspiring comedian from Brazil who's more interested in coming up with the perfect joke than in house-cleaning. This theatrical and wildly funny play is a whimsical and poignant look at class, comedy and the true nature of love.
