Other Duties As Required is a site-based play digging into the wild world of modern hiring - from both sides of the experience. Setting up inside a real office building in downtown Edmonton, the play invites an audience to explore or observe a hiring fair for The Company they won’t soon forget. Based on real job postings, local statistics, and horror stories from both jobseekers and business owners, join us for this ambitious and darkly comic creation from award-winning playwright Louise Casemore. This play is being developed through the Write Here Immersive Theatre Creation program.
