The Huns at MLC Studio

“This is the sharpest, high-energy office comedy … that also exposes the dehumanizing effect of tech and modern work.” - Stage Door

“An outstanding production with acute insight into the modern workplace.” - NOW Magazine

“A small miracle of a play.” - Intermission Magazine

The morning after a break-in at Boston based tech company, three co-workers assemble for an urgent conference call to discuss the burglary. What starts as a civilized, professional meeting swiftly devolves into a brutal showdown that puts everyone’s careers -- and their hopes for future happiness-- in jeopardy. 

Staged in a midtown office space for an intimate audience of 25, The Huns is a menacing new workplace comedy about minor revolutions and modern-day barbarians. Featuring Samantha Gorjanc*, Bradley Marco, and Kiara Melendez and an ever present voiceover cast of co-workers, The Huns confronts the difference between what we do and who we are. 

The Huns is written by Michael Ross Albert, a Toronto based playwright described by the Toronto Star as “one of Toronto’s most exciting playwrights”. 

"There’s a running theme of barbarians invading; the idea being that we seem to be at the height of civilization, like the Roman Empire [laughs] which was torn apart by these invading barbaric forces. The Huns. The question being whether or not it’s these people on the outside, the very obvious burglar who’s come in and pillaged the office, or if it’s these so-called civilized people that create this society that are in fact the more barbaric of the bunch.” -Michael Ross Albert (My Entertainment World)

Director Lindsay Van Norman stages this intimate, site-specific play for a limited run at MLC Studio in Midtown Manhattan. There are 6 opportunities to catch this show before it's gone. Visit the website for more details.
