Sommaire
Sexy Laundry is a full-length romantic comedy by Michele Riml. Henry and Alice, married for 25-years, are trying to find a way to spice up their dormant marriage with a weekend in a swanky hotel room and the help of a good book… (not the Bible). Can they embrace all the wild suggestions Alice keeps pulling from her handy-dandy marriage-saving manual? Is Henry prepared to see his fifty-plus wife, and mother of his children, dressed in black leather? Sexy Laundry is a laugh-out-loud and moving comedy about long-time marriage and later-life sex. After twenty-five years of marriage, the emergence of love handles and receding hairlines, Alice and Henry have hit a physical plateau. With a "Sex for Dummies" guidebook in hand, Alice convinces Henry into a weekend of alone time in the hopes of seducing him and unearthing her inner vixen. Henry, however, wants to keep things the way they are – comfortable and easy. Exploring every fantasy from leather to lace, Alice and Henry portray every couple's desire to grow together but maintain individuality. Their touching and hilarious rediscovery of themselves and the strength of their marriage will resonate with audiences of all ages.
