In the last corporation on the planet, everything is great and everybody’s happy! Then K, a survivor from the outside world, arrives at the behest of a mysteriously missing manager and challenges the seamless, numbing, but highly efficient status quo. Darkly zany and driven by a catchy electro-folk-funk score, IN CORPO is a daringly bold musical about the seductions of technology, the possibilities of authentic human connection and what to do when the system lets you down.
IN CORPO draws freely from Franz Kafka’s The Castle, Herman Melville’s Bartleby the Scrivener and the artists' own experiences negotiating hellish bureaucracies and corporate “day jobs.” The common thread: a deep interest in the individual’s relationship to forces that curtail autonomy and limit self-expression, as well as the ways employees adapt to and against these forces. Produced by The Assembly in association with Dutch Kills Theater Company.
