Prepare for a one-of-a-kind performance revue that's anything but your typical office tower affair! This sassy show dives headfirst into the absurd and objectionable aspects of the modern workplace, delivering a musical experience that spans blues, rap, Latin plainchant, and more, all in the name of evaluating what meets expectations and what needs a bit of improvement.
Amy Mansfield, the creative genius behind the songs, has crafted a wicked range of tunes exploring hot topics like coworker communications ('Mansplain it to me') and Uniformity and Exclusion ('CEO Song: Okay so I'm white') across the realms of corporates, the public sector, and the precarious gig economy.
Inspired by a medley of influences, from the humor of the TV series Crazy Ex-Girlfriend to the classic Modern Times by Charlie Chaplin, Tricia Hersey's Rest is Resistance, and David Graeber's Bullshit Jobs, "H.R. The Musical" will have you laughing with a mix of despair and curiosity. You'll find yourself pondering, along with the rest of the world, when the revolution is coming – a thought that might just make it onto your to-do list.
Featuring a stellar cast, including the critically acclaimed Mika Austin, known for Artsense Productions' hits like "I Didn't Invite You Here to Lecture Me" and "you are [not] alone here," alongside the incredibly talented Zoe Triggs, Mansfield herself and further cast to be announced, who will dazzle you as they sing, dance and play various blowable and plucky instruments.
Gather your co-workers and your boss – this is one work-related event you won't want to miss!
