Review: (Montreal) Good Housekeeping (Fringe)

Sex, Kink...but No Windows
by Élaine Charlebois

In Good Housekeeping, Kelly Craig plays Audrey, a middle-aged woman who is searching for a housekeeper to take meticulous care of the mansion she shares with her politician husband. From the onset of the play, we discover that Audrey and her husband enjoy engaging in wild sexual activities and thus require a housekeeper who can keep mum about their sex life. After interviewing and hiring Bethany (Emily Tognet), a young theatre student who desperately needs a job to pay her bills, Audrey demands that the candidate sign a contract binding her to full secrecy. From that scene on, the show plunges further into zaniness, making for a highly entertaining show.
