Off-Broadway on the Irene Diamond Stage at the Pershing Square Signature Center (480 West 42nd Street) 

 

It’s business as usual at the Northeast Office where the cheerfully dutiful receptionist answers phones, brews coffee and gossips with co-workers. But when an unexpected visitor from the Central Office walks through the door, business becomes far from usual. THE RECEPTIONIST is a jet-black comedy about bureaucracy and complicity that’s biting in its humor and chilling in its relevance.
