From a press release:

“The Office” may be based in Scranton, but the off-Broadway show “The Office! A Musical Parody” is heading a few hours away to the Community Arts Center in Williamsport on Tuesday, Oct. 8 at 7:30 p.m.

Tickets, which are $28.60, $39, and $49.40, are on sale now and available at caclive.com and the box office at the Community Arts Center (220 West 4th St., Williamsport).

Still currently running at the Jerry Orbach Theater at The Theater Center in New York City, this unauthorized musical parody of NBC’s television hit show “The Office” is on its third North American tour. Writers Bob and Tobly McSmith also created musical parodies of “Friends,” “Saved by the Bell,” “Full House,” “90210,” “Showgirls,” and “Cats.”

“‘The Office! A Musical Parody’ is on track to be our most successful New York production in 10 years,” Tobly McSmith said. “And ‘The Office! A Musical Parody’ is now one of the most successful off-Broadway shows in history. As Michael might say, ‘It’s been a dream come thru.'”

It’s a typical morning at Scranton’s third-largest paper company until, for no logical reason, a documentary crew begins filming the lives of the employees of Dunder Mifflin. Don’t miss this hilarious, unauthorized parody of your favorite TV show. Mashable calls the show “the world’s most elaborate inside joke, created with a whole lot of love, just for fans.”

Your favorite moments from all nine seasons are mashed up into one “typical” day with Michael, Jim, Pam, Dwight, and others at “The Office,” featuring songs such as “That’s What She Said,” “Marry Me Beesly,” and “We Have Fun Here.”
