Is knowledge power in corporate America? Or is some other less lofty commodity the secret ingredient to success and elevation to the C-Suite? When the CEO of a megacorporation brings in a Harvard hotshot to challenge his longtime knowledge guru, nicknamed The Oracle, their fierce and scathingly funny competition shreds the curtains of ’corporate speak’ and Wall Street jargon to reveal what really matters in the business world. The results change the lives and loves of those who work there. This comic stage play scrutinizes diversity, office politics, ambition, alliances, and competition within a company from the break room to the board room. It follows the actionwhen two chief knowledge officers vie for control while the audience emerges as one big winner in the battle. A comedy about office politics, that borders on the ridiculous!
