Martha, Josie and the Chinese Elvis

Charlotte Jones

Full-Length Play, Comedy / 4w, 2m

A feel-good comedy focusing on Josie Botting, a retiring dominatrix, who is having a birthday party but is in no mood to celebrate, her cleaner, obsessive-compulsive Martha, who can't pry herself away from her Mr. Sheen the Chinese Elvis who looks the part but hasn't quite learned the words and Lionel, Josies most satisfied customer, there to make sure everything goes off with a bang! Writer Charlotte Jones is one of Britains hottest young talents. Her wonderful and compelling play is full of quirky characters, including the excruciating lip-quivering routines of songs by the Chinese Elvis. MARTHA, JOSIE AND THE CHINESE ELVIS won the Pearson Television Best Play Award for 1998 and Manchester Evening News Best New Play for 1999. It also contributed to Charlotte Jones winning the Critics Circle Most Promising Playwright Award 1999.

“I’ve been here since 1922. Yes, stationed here July 4th – American Independence Day – funny that. The irony is not lost on me, believe you me. I shall be your superior officer for a while, but don’t worry, I’m not one to pull rank. We do this polishing duty for one hour each day. The rest of the time we shuffle and look crazed. They prefer it that way”
