Ever wanted to murder HR, sexually assault a puppet and sing a workplace song? Join Strategists Beth and Ben as they induct a cohort of new-starters into ENTITY, a global superpower. When the introduction of an AI assistant threatens to derail their workshop, they must hold the session together while proving the value of human labour. This becomes a challenge when digital integration turns romantic, and Ben falls in love with the AI, whilst Beth's morally bankrupt plan to harness criminals for clean energy gets the green light. A high-energy, multimedia two-hander.
