Dirty Dusting

Victoria Theatre, Halifax, Saturday January 20 at 7.30pm

The production stars Crissy Rock, Leah Bell and Vanessa Karon.

Gladys, Olive and Elsie are three ‘vintage style’ cleaning ladies who, threatened with redundancy, chance on an unconventi­onal way of earning some extra cash. A wrong number requiring a sex chat line rings into the office and gives them a great idea. Why not start their own Sex Chat Line? After all, their age and appearance will not matter on the telephone and providing they can keep this a secret from Dave, their boss…they could be on to a winner. What could possibly go wrong?
