RX by Kate Fodor

*Regional Premiere*

"A sharp, tenderly sardonic new comedy…[Fodor turns] a classic boy-meets-girl romantic structure into a thornily funny image of today's screwed-up world."
—Village Voice

The Play: Phil is a researcher entrusted with the first major trial of Thriveon, Schmidt Pharma's experimental treatment for workplace depression. Meena is a study subject who is depressed by her workplace. Can Thriveon cure Meena? Can Meena cure Phil? A comedy about big love, big dreams and Big Pharma.
