We open on Protagonist's 30th birthday at the Alton Towers, where her life takes an unexpected turn. Mid-Calippo, she's unceremoniously dumped by her long-term boyfriend, Joe. Things go from bad to worse when Joe then starts dating her office arch-nemesis: Karen. Protagonist must now navigate a powder keg of heartbreak and identity crisis which explodes in the ultimate office showdown. Seamlessly breaking the fourth wall, Protagonist will whisk you through a chaos-filled narrative that has been described as Fleabag meets The Office with Cameron-West as 'the female Peep Show' (TheNerdParty.com).
