The series, which features experimental works and pieces that are under development by the company, will open with a reading Kate Fodor's Rx (October 30-November 1), which focuses on a magazine editor who enters a clinical drug trial to seek a cure for workplace depression and finds romance. Matt Shakman will direct.
