Intro - by Piero Passacantando

From the clothes you wear to the language you use, the corporate workplace is a social minefield. Despite lengthy HR handbooks and employee guidelines the crucial behavioral codes and cues are often veiled and only discovered when we haplessly tread on them. This event confronts such danger zones with humor and art in an evening of comedy, storytelling, music and video about contorting, confusing or conforming to social norms in the workplace. 

You are invited to get tipsy, partake in juicy gossip and behave inappropriately without risking disastrous professional repercussions. Warning: Codes of conduct may be broken. 

Featuring: The Lady Aye, Amelia Bareparts, Ian Edgar, Emma Gordon, Mica Scalin, Rommel Wood, portrait photography by Jason Falchook and more. Music and video acts by Edgar of Eclectic Method and Forrest Lewinger

Refreshments for this event provided by Lagunitas Brewing Co.
