“Transparent” writer and producer Faith Soloway has a new show in development. Variety reports that she’s teaming up with UK-based Dancing Ledge Prods. to make its first series, “Super Sensitives.”
Few details about the project are known, and “Super Sensitives” is a working title, so the series may end up airing under a different name. The comedic drama is set in the U.S. and will follow a group of characters “who are allergic to the modern world,” Dancing Ledge hinted in a statement.
“I am so excited to be partnering with Dancing Ledge. We are taking on voices and stories I’ve always been fascinated with but have never seen told in a comedic tone,” said Soloway. The four-time WGA nominee explained, “Playing against the grain is the most exciting thing as a writer. I cannot wait for this challenge.”
Dancing Ledge CEO Laurence Bowen added, “The quality and big-heartedness of [Faith’s] writing hits you between the eyes from the off, and I’ve been a huge fan of hers for years.”
According to the source, Soloway is “currently writing the premiere episode of ‘Transparent’s’ upcoming fourth season,” scheduled to hit Amazon sometime this year. The Emmy-winning family drama was created by her sister, Jill, and marks Soloway’s first TV credit. She previously worked in improv and has produced a series of rock operas for the stage.
