"The Clean House" is one of Sarah Ruhl's most popular plays. The script follows several stories: Lane is a doctor who discovers her husband is cheating on her; Matilde is a cleaning woman who would rather be a comedian; Ana is a free-spirited woman who is dying of cancer; Virginia is Lane's sister, and desperate for a change in her mundane life. The script has never been one of Jacob's favorites, but maybe Jackson can sway him! Listen in as J&J talk about Ruhl's use of unusual structuring and hilarious imagery.
