World premiere of horror comedy “Human Resources: The Musical” to debut online this December.

A team of artists from across the country are excited to announce the premiere of a brand new musical. Yes, it’s online. Yes, they’re doing this in quarantine. And yes, they want you to see it. That musical is Human Resources, with book and lyrics by Mallory Schlossberg, music by Schlossberg and Alexandra Smith, and arrangements and full scoring by Smith.

Emily (Megan Rabuse) is down on her luck after losing her job at a wellness startup, which was supposed to cover her IVF treatment. With $90,000 in grad school debt, there’s no way she and her husband, Max (Nathan Clemenson) can afford IVF. Things take a turn when she gets a phone call from Greener Pastures, the biggest health food empire in the world. Emily quickly gets hired and learns things at Greener Pastures are...a little different. The CEO only appears as a stock photo on video calls. They call each other part of the “family.” And pregnant women seem to leave and mysteriously never come back. Greener Pastures’ mission is “to feed the earth,” and...let’s just say they take that pretty seriously. Ultimately, Human Resources is a timely satirical B-horror comedy that specifically touches on the unsavory ways women are treated in the workplace. You know, like they’re disposable.

There are some unique perks to performing virtually: a lower barrier to entry for the audience. More people can see the production, which means more people get to see new theater. “I’m excited to share this fresh new musical with a wide audience,” says Schlossberg, who also serves as director. “Given the way that women have dropped out of the labor force in droves during the pandemic, it feels oddly fitting to be telling a story about the false binaries presented to women.
