The Secret Life of a Cleaner by Claudia Mellado

The Secret Life of a Cleaner is an immersive, autobiographical theatre project exploring migration, labour, identity and belonging. Following a Chilean actress who becomes a cleaner after moving to Ireland, the performance invites audiences into a private house, where an ordinary working day gradually transforms into an intimate theatrical experience.
Through humour, memory and audience interaction, the piece explores the tension between who we are and the roles we take on to survive.
