W*nkernomics (Show V4.1)

W*nkernomics comes to Butterworth Hall on Friday 13 November, the latest stop for an Australian comedy duo who call themselves 'Australia's favourite workplace wankers'. They've got a fair bit of ground behind them: two sell-out runs at the Edinburgh Fringe, over 50 million views online, and a Sunday Times best-selling book. The show itself is a satire of corporate life, and it's billed as Wnkernomics (Show V4.1)*.

It runs as a Q&A-style, thought-leadership piece, which is the joke in itself. The duo takes on the buzzwords, bureaucracy and bullshit of the modern workplace, blending observational comedy with dark satire. They go after the things most of us just put up with: pointless meetings, mission statements, 'synergies', and the particular absurdity of having to set up an account, download an app and answer a survey just to buy a pair of socks. It's the kind of thing that hits home if you've ever spent your day in a meeting about how to have fewer meetings.

Critics have called it 'exquisite', 'meticulously written' and 'the most original show we saw this year'. It's recommended for ages 18+.

It starts at 8:00pm and runs for an hour and 35 minutes, including an interval. Tickets are £49.50, £43.50 or £37.50, and you'll find it at the Warwick Arts Centre, University of Warwick, Coventry, CV4 7AL.
