The Carlton Players, a London-based civil service acting group, raised £150 for MAD Trust through programme sales at their recent production of Dirty Dusting.

The play, written by Ed Waugh and Trevor Wood, tells the story of three pensioner cleaning ladies who set up a secret telephone sex chatline from their office workplace to boost their failing income and thwart their nasty boss. Needless to say things don’t quite go according to plan!

This critically-acclaimed production, which ran at the Phoenix Artist Club in March 2016, was directed by Jack Harris and starred Bethan Campbell, Rebecca Golding, Sharan Hunjan and Tony Heavey.
