If playing two roles in “Roanoke” were a stretch, Peters really went all out for the “Cult” installment, playing one original character as well as versions of six charismatic figures from history. His main character is Kai, a power-mad man with political ambitions, who skillfully manipulates the climate of fear around the 2016 American elections for his own purposes, creating a cult around himself. Kai also “portrays” famed cult leaders whom Kai admires, such as Jim Jones, Charles Manson, David Koresh, and Marshall Applewhite, as well as briefly portraying versions of Andy Warhol and Jesus.
