Road Less Traveled Productions (RLTP) has announced its 2020 American Theatre Master, stage and screen actor (and Buffalo native), Sean Cullen, who will star in the company's 2019/20 season production of The Antipodes by Annie Baker. Cullen will join RLTP Ensemble members Kristen Tripp Kelley, Greg Howze, Dave Hayes, John Hurley and Dave Marciniak alongside Cassie Cameron, Ricky Needham and Adam Yellen under the direction of Artistic Director Scott Behrend. The production team includes RLTP Ensemble members Lynne Koscielniak (set design), John Rickus (light design), Maura Price (costume design), and Katie Menke (sound design) alongside Emily Powrie (props master).
Synopsis: Once upon a time, a group of writers gathered around a conference table in pursuit of the perfect untold tale: a story so epic, so truthful that it could change the world. From personal anecdotes to universal lore, from the mundane to the bizarre, Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright
Annie Baker takes us down the rabbit hole of our own mythologizing in a fevered brainstorming session that ultimately questions not only what stories are left to tell, but why tell stories at all? The Antipodes is a darkly humorous and incisive look at the absurdity of the human condition and our relentless need to order our disordered world.
