REVIEWS / PRESS

A lightly absurdist take on a laundromat, “Washeteria” has a couple of cruddy washers and dryers, a cave of detergent bottles and a pile of unclean clothes stretching up to the ceiling. These short pieces, appropriately juvenile, are designed to please elementary schoolers. Those present applauded the songs and howled at the body humor.
