Dirty Laundry is a collaboratively devised physical theatre piece about the things we wish we could hide; explored through poetic language, rhythmic physicality, work songs and laundry. Inspired by the laundresses in Federico García Lorca's poem-play, Yerma, the ensemble investigates the role of gossip in creating and destroying communites. In this short piece, the laundresses, only peripheral characters in Yerma, will take center stage and begin to speak through Lorca's words, through new text, through movement, and through song. From what Lorca called "a tragic poem in three acts" springs a night filled with dirty secrets, coming clean, and some things that are wrecked beyond repair.

Dirty Laundry runs approximately 30 minutes with no intermission. Following the performance, the audience is invited to join the artists for a glass of wine and a discussion about the intrinsic impact of the piece.
