The story

We’ll Let You Know is a fast-paced, laugh-out-loud comedy that takes the classic job interview process and cranks the chaos up to eleven. When Rita, Head of HR, and Jackie, VP of Operations at Dundee Dynamics, put out a call to fill an administrative assistant position, they’re overwhelmed by a tsunami of applicants—each more eccentric than the last. From an influencer livestreaming her interview to a conspiracy theorist convinced someone’s after his monkey, the parade of wildly unqualified characters leaves the duo questioning their life choices, their sanity, and possibly the future of corporate America.

This ensemble-driven play is a comedic goldmine for performers, filled with colorful characters and over-the-top antics that let students or actors showcase bold comedic timing and physical humor. Providing directors with one set and flexible casting, We’ll Let You Know is a perfect choice for schools and theaters looking for a high-energy crowd-pleaser. And just when you think the madness can’t go any further, a twist involving the retiring assistant “Gertrude” brings the story full circle—proving that sometimes, the right person has been there all along.
