A Bright new day is coming! Theatre Downtown presents the Birmingham premier of a thought-provoking dramedy by Samuel Hunter -- A Bright New Boise.The show opens Friday, March 7 7:30p and runs Fri/Sat at 7:30p, Sun at 2:30p through March 23.
In the bleak, corporate break room of a craft store in Idaho, someone is summoning The Rapture. Will, who has fled his rural hometown after a scandal at his Evangelical church, comes to the Hobby Lobby, not only for employment, but also to rekindle a relationship with Alex, his brooding teenage son, whom he gave up for adoption several years ago.
Alex works there along with Leroy, his adopted brother and protector, and Anna, a hapless young woman who reads bland fiction but hopes for dramatic endings. As their manager, foul-mouthed Pauline, tries ceaselessly to find order (and profit) in the chaos of small business, these lost souls confront an unyielding world through the beige-tinted impossibility of modern faith.
Tickets are $30 and can be purchased at www.theatredowntown.org.
