Bombproof Theatre at Lambeth Fringe Festival

HR at the Bomb Factory!

By Bombproof Theatre.

HR at the Bomb Factory! is a fast-paced satirical farce where we get to see what happens when the spreadsheets and policies really are asking for violence.

On the day a British weapons manufacturer is investigated for breaching international law, a mysterious clown infiltrates the building. Disguised as an interview candidate, a senior executive and finally a bombastic corporate lawyer, he runs rings around the staff, exposing the banal office logic that props up global violence.

Through rapid character changes, physical comedy and escalating chaos, the clown manipulates the employees into revealing their own complicity. What begins as workplace absurdity gradually unravels into something darker and more explosive.

Following a sold-out show at the 2025 Camden Fringe Bombproof Theatre are bringing their 'hilarious call for empathy and accountability' (Everything Theatre) to the Lambeth Fringe.
