Irene Cleans Up is about a middle-aged London cleaner with a remarkable palate for wine, and decades of social conditioning telling her to stay in her place. When a highly successful and fiercely competitive sommelier bets she can transform Irene into an elite expert, an unlikely partnership begins. As ambition, class and confidence collide, both women confront what it means to change direction later in life. Warm, funny and sharply observed, Irene Cleans Up is a new play about reinvention, female friendship and the courage to redefine yourself after years of expectation when it matters most.
