Their purpose is never clear: are they brainstorming ideas for a TV show? A film? A mythology? This is a world where ghostly fables co-exist with mundane discussions of snacks and sexual exploits, where the vague instruction to tell stories about \"something monstrous\" though \"it might not be a literal monster\" becomes maddeningly impossible. Part satire, part sacred rite, \u003cem\u003eThe Antipodes \u003c\/em\u003easks what value stories have for a world in crisis.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAnnie Baker\u003c\/strong\u003e's plays include \u003cem\u003eThe Flick \u003c\/em\u003e(Pulitzer Prize), \u003cem\u003eJohn\u003c\/em\u003e, \u003cem\u003eThe Aliens \u003c\/em\u003e(Obie Award), \u003cem\u003eCircle Mirror Transformation \u003c\/em\u003e(Obie Award), and an adaptation of Anton Chekhov's \u003cem\u003eUncle Vanya\u003c\/em\u003e.
