The Antipodes

Annie Baker is a Pulitzer Prize-winner and one of America’s most provocative playwrights. Her 2019 play, The Antipodes, delivers a surreal writer’s room, a #MeToo premonition, and a many-layered meditation on storytelling. Part satire, part sacred rite, Baker’s play asks what value stories have for a world in crisis. “The Antipodes leaves you glowing with a wondering satisfaction…Ms. Baker has established herself as one of the freshest voices in American theater.” (The New York Times) Features students from JMU’s School of Theatre and Dance. Contains violence, adult language, self harm and sexual content. Presented by arrangement with Concord Theatricals on behalf of Samuel French, Inc. www.concordtheatricals.com
