Abstract
This is a creative play meant to inform and entertain anyone curious about working in an office environment. The play centers on an office romance set in a local advertiser tabloid newspaper. There is an element of comic relief brought on by the characters Steve and Dave. Steve sees Dave as a sort of mentor and follows Dave's lead as they try to uncover hard evidence that Andrea is having a love affair with Ray, the office manager. The affair gains Andrea preferential treatment in sales commissions and Steve and Dave suffer as a result of this situation. Throughout the play, the character's actions take place behind closed doors. By the end of the play, it is made clear to the audience that what we do behind closed doors is inevitably brought out into the open.
