About the show
Zoe Keddie and Tori Kay of Water Horse Productions present a satirical comedy set at The Firm, where a typical day involves being electrocuted, waterboarded, strip-teased, and faxed before noon — all before coffee arrives. Clara, head of operations and part-time cult leader, runs the office with charisma capable of sending fleets of dancing men to war and back for tea. Beside her is Marie, the most competent assistant in company history, diligent but rarely heard once Clara begins. When systems fail, clients revolt, and disasters multiply from a single, damning mistake, the universe appears to have unionised against them both. Runs 50 minutes.
Why see this show?
A chaotic, sharp office satire with two vivid characters and the energy of a workplace comedy that has completely lost the plot. If you enjoy humour at the expense of corporate culture and cult-of-personality bosses, this one delivers.
