The complete cast of Office Hour features Greg Keller (David), Sue Jean Kim (Gina), Ki Hong Lee (Dennis), and Adeola Role (Genevieve).

With Office Hour, playwright Julia Cho offers a new drama about a teacher and student desperate to change the narrative of who they are and how their story ends. In the play, Gina was warned that one of her students would be a problem. Eighteen years old and strikingly odd, Dennis writes violently obscene work clearly intended to unsettle those around him. Determined to know whether he's a real threat, Gina compels Dennis to attend her office hours. But as the clock ticks down, Gina realizes that "good" versus "bad" is nothing more than a convenient illusion, and that the isolated young student in her office has learned one thing above all else: that for the powerless, the ability to terrify others is powerful indeed.
