Australian comedian and actor Felicity Ward will play Hannah Howard in "The Office Australia," a new Australian version of the American sitcom. In the show, Howard is the head of Flinley Craddick Packaging Company, which is based in Perth. The show will be set in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, with many businesses forced to close their doors due to lockdowns and restrictions on movement. Ward, who has appeared in several TV series including "Wakefield" and "The Inbetweeners 2," will portray Howard as she navigates her way through this new reality. She will have to make tough decisions about how to continue operating her business while also keeping in touch with her family and friends back home. In the show's post-pandemic plot twist, Howard receives news that her branch will be shutting down and that staff will have to work from home. This unexpected news forces her to rethink her priorities and make some difficult choices about what is important to her. With limited resources and time, she must find ways to keep her "work family" together, even if it means going above and beyond what is expected of her.
