ABOUT JOB:
Jane, an employee at a big tech company (you know the one), has been placed on leave after becoming the subject of a viral video. She arrives in the office of Loyd, a crisis therapist, determined to be reinstated to the job that gives her life meaning. Featuring Scott Greer (most recently seen at Exile in Red by John Logan) and Arianna Gayle (the understudy from the Broadway production). What Vulture called “A slick, cleverly crafted drop-tower ride,” JOB is a psychological thriller that zooms in on two careerists of different generations, genders and political paradigms to examine what it means to be a citizen of the internet and our obligation to help the people who need it most.
