“..a twisty comedy….a poisoned Post-it note of a play” -- The New York Times

It seems to be the typical day in a typical office. Beverly answers ringing phones and listens to her colleague’s romantic woes, until an unctuous salesman, Mr. Dart, appears and disrupts the daily routine. As the true nature of the company’s business becomes apparent, The Receptionist raises disquieting, provocative questions about the consequences of complicity with evil.

The Receptionist features Lissy Gulick, Jennifer Klika, Michael Regnier and Tom Woodward. Dobama Theatre Artistic Director Joel Hammer directs.

Paired with The Receptionist, the World Premiere of local favorite Eric Coble’s H.R. promises not to be a typical day at the office. The “typical” day unravels and Coble’s wit does not disappoint! H.R. is directed by Joe Verciglio and features the same cast from The Receptionist.

The Receptionist and H.R. open on March 13 at Pilgrim Congregational Church in Tremont, 2592 W. 14th St., Cleveland, OH, 44113, with a Preview Performance on March 12. Tickets are $8 - $22.
