Kay Meek Arts Centre kicks off 2024/25 Play Series with the hilarious Arts Club on Tour comedy, Sexy Laundry

Delight in the revival of an Arts Club favourite with the contemporary Canadian comedy Sexy Laundry, by acclaimed playwright Michele Riml.Sexy Laundry is playing at the Kay Meek Arts Centre, October 10 & 11, 2024.

Director Diana Donnelly said, “Sexy Laundry is a life-affirming romcom! It is very funny because it rings very true. People see themselves in Alice and Henry’s struggle to fall back in love. The play looks at the midlife reckoning, at how society values us differently as we age, but most of all Sexy Laundry is about the joy of long love—despite everything. If Alice and Henry can reconnect, we all can.”

Sexy Laundry first premiered at the Arts Club 20 years ago. Since then, it has gone on to national and international success, boasting 15 language translations and performances from Vancouver to Charlottetown to Germany to Mexico and more.
