The cleaning ladies in the municipal
art gallery enjoy their work. Not only does
it provide them with an escape from the
mundane reality of their lives outside the
marble halls, but they have grown to love
and appreciate the objects in their care,
although certain aspects of avant-garde
art does worry them.
Rumours of government cut backs threaten
to upset their cosy regime. However, in
the face of adversity they come up with
a solution that not only secures their futures
and helps to save the gallery, but also
ensures that their lives will never be quite
the same again.
A beautifully crafted and very popular
play, ideal for festivals, and capable of
being played by either an all female cast,
or female principals with a few male supporting
roles. |
