Contractions

Contractions
This show has now finished

Mike Bartlett's dark satire. In the office of a nameless manager, within an unspecified multinational company, Emma, a polite and successful member of the sales team, is asked to read aloud a clause in her contract which forbids 'any relationship, activity or act' between employees 'which could be characterised as sexual or romantic'. During the following meetings, the company's power and control over its employees' personal lives, and Emma's attempts to resist, escalate in their absurdity, humiliation and menace. Often ferociously funny while being absolutely appalling. Will make sure you never set foot in the office again.
