James Wilson takes a look at Russian Troll Farm: A Workplace Comedy at Vineyard Theatre:
The subtitle of Sarah Gancher's Russian Troll Farm: A Workplace Comedy, currently running at the Vineyard Theatre (and in association with Geva Theatre Center), calls to mind a host of sitcoms set in offices, schools, bars, and television studios. With its references to burgeoning romances among workers, oily and deceitful staff members, and the inclusion of a threateningly unthreatening (or is that an unthreateningly threatening?) boss, the play calls to mind familiar and beloved shows like "The Office," "Parks and Recreation," "30 Rock," and "The Mary Tyler Moore Show." |
