Founder + Lead Maker

Ryan Hope Travis is an actor, director, writer, theatre-maker, and filmmaker.

RHT has guest starred on the 11-time Emmy Award-winning series Watchmen and the AppleTV+ series Manhunt. Additional credits include work in film, regional theater, voiceover, and commercials for BET and others. His work as a multi-hyphenate filmmaker (i.e. writer/director/cinematographer) has world premiered at film festivals in Los Angeles, NYC, Miami, Austin, the United Kingdom, and the Academy Award-qualifying, Atlanta Film Festival.

As a theatre-maker, RHT has written, directed, produced, and/or devised over 45 productions. New Berry, a play he recently devised and directed, received its world premiere at the Hippodrome Theater, an Equity playhouse in Central Florida. Inspired by a mass lynching that occurred in Newberry, FL in 1916, the play became a site for reconciliation for descendants and community members.

RHT holds degrees in Theatre (MFA, University of Florida), Pan African Studies (M.A., Syracuse University), African World Studies (B.A., Fort Valley State University), and is currently a doctoral student in Theatre and Performance Research at Florida State University — where he serves as Assistant Professor in Performance.
