W*nkernomics tickets and regional UK dates

W*nkernomics brings its corporate satire live to the UK, skewering the buzzwords, bureaucracy and collective nonsense of modern working life. The Australian act behind two Edinburgh Fringe sell-out runs and a Sunday Times bestselling book have accumulated more than 50 million online views, and this show visits Grand Opera House York and New Theatre Oxford.

What the show is

The format is pitched as a Q&A-style thought-leadership deep-dive, which is, deliberately, exactly the kind of language the show sets out to mock. W*nkernomics use observational comedy and dark satire to dissect the jargon and systemic nonsense that have colonised contemporary workplaces.

Practical considerations

The show runs for one hour and 35 minutes and carries an 18+ age guidance at both venues. An on-stage screen forms part of the presentation, so audience members seated in upper levels or restricted-view seats may not have a full sightline to it, worth factoring in when choosing where to sit.
