The Oracle at Theater for the New City

Is knowledge power in corporate America? Or is some other less lofty commodity the secret ingredient to success and elevation to the C-Suite? When the CEO of a mega-corporation brings in a Harvard hotshot to challenge his longtime knowledge guru, nicknamed The Oracle, their fierce and scathingly funny competition pulls back the curtains to reveal what really matters in the corporate world and changes the lives and loves of those who work for them too. This comedy looks at diversity, office politics, ambition, alliances and competition within a company from the break room to the board room. The latest work by Wall Street Journal humor columnist Joe Queenan and writer T.J. Elliott looks at what happens when two chief knowledge officers vie for control while the audience emerges as one big winner in the battle.
