Things Just Got Personnel: H.R. The Musical #2, A Provocative New Sketch Comedy
Press Release – Elephant Publicity Silliness prospects just got exponential with Artsense Productions announcing a follow-up to its runaway 2024 hit, Musical: the no-nonsense (which means all kinds of nonsense) H.R. The Musical #2. CEO Richard ('Dick') and his band of generic employees return to Q Theatre, from 25 Nov – 6 Dec, with a completely new show of riotous musical sketch-comedy. Says writer-producer Amy Mansfield, 'We're delighted to be back in front of Tāmaki-makau-rau Auckland audiences with the kind of work they told us they want: hilarious, relevant and relatable views into the mad work world we all make our way through every day.' Mansfield is a strong believer in the wisdom and voice of audiences, both in her artistic practice and as a producer. 'Everyone has a work story to tell, and the more absurd the better! For H.R. The Musical #2, I'm crowd-sourcing work stories from real-life human resources.' Like its predecessor, the show will include a range of musical genres, including Renaissance, pop, rockabilly, latin, and oonst-oonst. H.R. The Musical #2 will tackle up-to-the-minute workplace conundrums through the medium of the belly laugh. Fresh from performing a successful solo show at NZ International Comedy Festival, actor (and ex-HR executive) Mika Austin is looking forward to exercising her comedy muscles again in H.R. The Musical #2 's two-week stint to kick off the silly season. 'We're welcoming you back to the team stand-up along with your workmates, your clients, and even your boss. H.R. The Musical #2 is for anyone who's ever had a job, or thought about getting one.'
