AUDITIONS FOR STEAMING TOURING IN 2010 DIRECTED BY VAL LEHMAN Produced by Jally Productions SYNOPSIS - STEAMING Six women from diverse background meet on ‘ladies day’ in a London bathhouse where they share the most intimate details of their lives, loves, dreams and frustrations. Steaming is the heart-warming, ribald classic by Nell Dunn The show is known for its razor-sharp, acerbic dialogue and YES, its nudity. This play can be considered controversial because of the nudity. But, it’s so much more than that – it’s about friendship, finding your place in the world and fighting for what you believe in. Set in an old Turkish bath somewhere in the East End of London where six women of all conditions come to bare their bodies, souls and fantasies. Steaming is a warm- hearted, often humorous portrayal of women coming to know each other.
