Dirty Dusting – King's Theatre, Glasgow (7th - 12th June 2010)

Dirty Dusting is a fabulous night out. It is brilliantly funny, and will have you howling with laughter.

Dirty Dusting follows the story of 3 elderly (but not it spirit) cleaners who are being made redundant due to their age. Not able to survive on their pensions, they come up with a rather naughty plan of how to make money, and make best use of the office during their last weekend. Step forward the Telephone Belles, Glasgow's newest sex chat line.  

Sharp and witty writing from Ed Waugh and Trevor Wood; and the comedy skills of the four-strong cast make this a night out to remember.
Janet Michael really stands out in her role as Gladys. The comedic innocence she brings to the role is simply wonderful. 
Barbara Rafferty appears as Elsie, alongside her husband Sean Scanlon as Dave, the office manager. Both give excellent performances in their own right; but together their chemistry shines through and really adds something special to the production.
Understudy Carol Andrers filled the role of the third risque cleaner; replacing Gwyneth Guthrie. Unfortunately, her performance was not as strong or believable as the others. 

Dirty Dusting had the audience doubled over with laughter. It is an entertaining story well told, and is definitely worth a visit.
