With imaginative stagecraft and wry humor, a dream team of Nashville’s most inventive theater artists transforms OZ Arts’ vast warehouse into the global headquarters of pharmaceutical conglomerate Liminal for this comically surreal theatrical event. Follow branching narratives through a dizzying maze of corporate doublespeak and endless paperwork as the company’s employees unravel a mysterious HR complaint and walk the ethical tightrope of capitalist survival. Experience the artfully crafted chaos unfold from multiple perspectives as you are guided to view scenes from different sides of the space. Lively physical interactions, stunning visual design, surprising humor, and eerily familiar nine-to-five horrors combine to create an inventive and thought-provoking performance where the truth depends on whose story you see.
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 American workplace, while providing a laugh-filled critique of bewildering late-stage capitalism.
