The Outfit Theatre Co. are proud to present The Office Xmas Party, a hilarious end of year farce which documents an office Christmas party as it snowballs madly out of control.

Shadstone Carpets is a family company. Noel Shadstone inherited the family business from his recently deceased father Big Norm. The eighty-nine year old Norm Shadstone is survived only by his socially inadequate and romantically challenged son Noel, his estranged narcoleptic daughter Buttercup and his thirty year old wife, former glamour model Janice.

Noel can’t seem to find the right time to let his staff know that the company is about to close and that they’re all being made redundant. With a staff like this, secrets don’t stay secret for long. There’s Chris, the office playboy; Evan, the internet-dating loser from accounts; and Christina, the Christmas-crazy, potentially psychotic receptionist.

When every character has a secret to keep, a murder to cover up or a twisted romance to hide, the annual Shadstone Christmas party is a powder keg waiting to blow. When Detective Inspector Chad McAvoy arrives to find a missing woman, all hell breaks loose!

Bring your friends, grab your work mates and celebrate the festive season with the cheapest, fastest, craziest theatre piece that the laws of physics will allow.
