The Temp — Alexandra Scordato

Produced by Forgotten Ones

Are we all faking it at our jobs? Or is that just The Temp, a pretentious ingenue ready to spill the truth on her undercover acting role at a dysfunctional NY media company. Fleabag meets Office Space for the post-Great Resignation era, The Temp lampoons white-collar work culture through a tale of lies, betrayal, and egregious misconduct, told by an unreliable narrator and her absurd impersonations of her desperate co-workers. A twisted new solo play by American comedian Kristina DeGiovanni, The Temp will keep you laughing so you don't cry.

REVIEWS

“Kristina uses the stage well, creating distinct office spaces and vignettes though well blocked movement. Bravo Director Alexandra Scordato who presumably had a strong hand in shaping such an dynamic and smooth production.”

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️.5

WJ Quinn, Quintessential Review

“It says a lot about her director that the shows pace and rhythm, coupled with DeGiovanni’s swift acting abilities to flicker from role to role, that this show feels so far beyond a one woman show and we can so easily see a television adaptation.”

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Jason Sanders, The Interrobang

“Alexandra Scordato’s direction of the show is nothing short of superb for a Fringe production, effectively utilising a minimal set and lighting to create a theatrical minimalist interpretation of the corporate American environment. Kristina’s solo prowess fills the stage with boundless energy, conjuring a bustling office populated with an eclectic cast of characters that come to life in her capable hands including the docile slow talking, obliviously underachieving Georgia to the villain at the heart of the show Jefe.”

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
