APPRAISAL by Tim Marriott

An annual work review that goes horribly wrong.

Head of Department Nicky wants to get on with her job, but her boss Jo has other ideas. He has a plan and thinks she is going to like it…

A two-hander dark comedy played out in real time, Appraisal is a masterclass in subtext, manipulation, and unexpected humour. What seems like an ordinary work performance review quickly turns into a comical yet chilling power struggle. Nicky is just trying to get through the meeting, but her boss, Jo, has something far more sinister—and ridiculous—up his sleeve. The situation spirals into an absurdly tense showdown that’s as funny as it is unnerving…
