An improvised science-fiction office comedy
Welcome to the Break Room–an interactive look into a completely normal, very typical 21st century workplace.
Take a peek inside a magnetic tape storage company where we follow the lives of six real personalities, navigating their way through routine, office politics, and the quiet absurdities of life.
There is no cause for concern regarding the portal in the break room. It is a temporary and manageable anomaly. Any side effects, including but not limited to teleportation, time loops, time loops, time loops, time loops, time loops, and other minor disruptions to reality should be logged in the issue tracker. All incidents will be addressed in the order received, though current service times may be slower due to the investigation of an ongoing infinite regress.
Portal in the Break Room is a four-episode, improvised science-fiction office comedy built from audience suggestions, six reality-defying improvisers, and one unreliable mind steering the portal from behind the scenes. Your suggestions will unravel the fabric of existence, forcing our characters to question not only the world around them, but also themselves: their ambitions, their assumptions, and who they think they are.
