Sun Valler Performing Arts Center Presents BRIGHT NEW BOISE

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 of the Hobby Lobby confront an unyielding world through the beige-tinted impossibility of modern faith.

Andrew Alburger directs an outstanding cast featuring Chris Carwithen, David Janeski, Cameron Needham, Aly Wepplo and Patsy Wygle.

Part of The Center's BIG IDEA project Idaho Stories, Oct 21, 2016-Jan 6, 2017.
