Whether its the doctors inability to remember her name, or the toxic fumes radiating from the Xerox machine and lab next door, Dr. Williams office is not made for Jaclyn. As the only Black woman in the office, Jaclyn is determined to keep her job. But when Dr. Williams promotes her White co-worker, Ileen, and asks her to spy on their only Black co-worker, Jaclyn has her work cut out for her. Fueled by a fear of difference and looming racial uprising, how far will Jaclyn, Ileen and Dr. Williams go? SGT Associate Artistic Director, AmBer D. Montgomery, directs Chicago writer Joel Drake Johnsons comedy-turned-social thriller about workplace racism.
