The Firehouse Theatre Project kicks off its 2012-13 season, Stories from the American Inferno, with the opening of A Bright New Boise Thursday, September 20th. Playwright Samuel D. Hunter's story of a dysfunctional father-son relationship will move you from anticipation to laughter. Directed by Morrie Piersol, it will be performed at the Firehouse Theatre September 20th to October 13th.
A Bright New Boise centers on Will, a disgraced Evangelical from northern Idaho who takes a job at a Boise Hobby Lobby. But as his fellow employees begin to uncover dark secrets from his past and become increasingly interested in his reasons for leaving his church, Will must choose whether to have a normal life or to hold onto the beliefs that have given his life meaning. Aboard a roller coaster of emotional outbursts, a choice between family and faith has to be made in this moving American profile.
The cast for A Bright New Boise includes (alphabetically):
Audra Honaker, Billy Christopher Maupin, Jacob Pennington, Nate Smith, and Jill Bari Steinberg.
