Julia has been working late at the office with her boss Geoff. The trouble is, the place has been robbed and ransacked and the villains have departed leaving Geoff and Julia tied up. They have little choice other than to wait for the cleaners to arrive in the morning. Maybe a game of I Spy would pass the time. Or maybe romance is in the air.

An especially useful play for actors who never know what to do with their arms!!! Ages of actors flexible.

Author's Notes

Anyone who has acted on a stage has probably wondered why the things we use every day of our lives - our arms - are suddenly so awkward and "in the way". You leave them dangling by your side and feel stupid. You put your hands in your pockets and get a telling off by the director. In short, they're in the way unless you have a prop or two to occupy them. Tied Up at the Office is the cure.

In the ransacked office, Geoff has been left captive, tied to one of the chairs in the untidy room. Julia has been left on his lap, equally immobilised. All they have to work with are facial expressions and movements of their heads. The set's easy too - I well remember Sale Nomads setting their version on a dimmed stage in an evening of one act plays. Two people came out in the gloom and tipped boxes of "stuff" all over the floor. Tidying up afterwards was more effort than stage setting.
