In The Hostage Situation, chaos and comedy collide when an ordinary day in a corporate break room takes a darkly hilarious turn.

Recently fired, Vic has come back to enact some revenge. There’s just one problem: he has no idea what he’s doing. Nobody knows what the rules are for bathroom breaks, the office doesn’t have a first aid kit, and pretty soon, all the good flavors of donuts are gone. The only thing for certain is that Harry’s still mad about not being promoted. As donuts, grudges, and egos fly, the unlikely hostages are forced to confront their personal failures, office rivalries, and surprising connections.

Fast-paced, sharp-witted, and unexpectedly heartfelt,  The Hostage Situation is a workplace comedy turned upside-down, proving that even in the darkest moments, there’s room for humor—and a little humanity.
