A three-part game show satirizing the corporate culture and practices that led to the 2008 financial crisis, filled with up-tempo musical numbers and real audience contestants competing for a large percentage of the box office take for the evening.
For this project, I functioned as one of two head question writers and also wrote several "Client Video" monologues for the second part of the show, in which audience members had their memory tested for fine detail or were asked to spontaneously write an advertising jingle in order to score points.
