“One of the most innovative and exciting companies in town” 

Nashville Scene

Journey through a dizzying cubicle maze in this immersive theatrical experience full of comically corporate doublespeak, absurdly endless paperwork, and more hilariously surreal realities of the American workplace. Nashville’s most adventurous theater artists join forces to take on corporate culture in this site-specific production designed for OZ Arts’ expansive warehouse. Lively physical interactions, surprising humor, and eerily familiar nine-to-five horrors combine to create an inventive, disorienting, and thought-provoking performance you won’t soon forget.

Devised and developed by award-winning theater artists from Nashville Story Garden with direction by Lauren Shouse and text by local legend Nate Eppler, Human Resources uses incisive wit and clever visuals to dismantle assumptions about what to expect from the professional workplace.
