★★★★★‘...a superb programme which displayed the multifaceted nature of human relationships – love, unrequited or returned, jealousy, rage, despair, misery, heartbreak and happiness – and placed it, surprisingly but extremely successfully, into the setting of an office party.’ - Scotsgay  

‘Exceptionally entertaining, humorous, musically and theatrically skilled, intimate and creative. I absolutely loved it.’ - Audience member in Lochinver, Autumn 2025


Water cooler moments, scheming co-workers and the leaving do that some would like to forget! The Office Party is a perfect opportunity to hear extracts from operas that may be new to you, against a backdrop of 1980s nostalgia that may be all too familiar...
