A performance revue like you'll never get in an office tower. This cheeky number, fresh from a sold-out season at NZ Int’l Comedy Festival, takes on the ridiculous and objectionable in the modern workplace in the form of the blues, rap, latin plainchant and more to see what meets expectations and what needs improvement.
The sketches, written and composed by Amy Mansfield in a wicked range of genres, play with such hot topics as coworker communications ('Mansplain it to me'), Uniformity and Exclusion ('CEO Song: Okay so I'm white') and endless restructuring. This season includes new material, and direction by Katie Burson.
Drawing on influences as diverse as comedy TV series Crazy Ex-Girlfriend and David Graeber's Bullshit Jobs, H.R. The Musical will have you laughing with despair, and wondering - along with the rest of the world - when the revolution is coming, then putting it on your to-do list.
The cast includes Mika Austin, the critically acclaimed darling of Artsense Productions' I Didn't Invite You Here to Lecture Me and you are [not] alone here, along with the madly talented Zoe Triggs, Amy Mansfield and special guests, who'll sing, dance and play various blowable and plucky instruments throughout.
Gather your co-workers and your boss and get to this work!
