Road Less Traveled Welcomes 2018 with THE NETHER

Wednesday, January 3rd, 2018 - Road Less Traveled Productions (RLTP) will welcome 2018 with mystery sci-fi drama The Nether by Jennifer Haley. The Nether will star Steve Jakiel, Eve Everette, David Marciniak, Sabrina Kahwaty and Patrick Cameron under the direction of RLTP Ensemble member Katie Mallinson.

Synopsis: Sometime in the near future, the Internet has evolved into the "Nether", a place where gender, age, identity, and truth are malleable, and your darkest desires and fears are all-too-obtainable. Winner of the 2012 Susan Smith Blackburn Prize for Drama, The Nether is a mystery/crime drama where even thoughts are actions, and every action has a real-world consequence...

"Imagine an episode of Law & Order: SVU written by... Ray Bradbury."- Ben Brantley, The New York Times
