Winningstad Theater - 1111 SW Broadway, Portland, OR 97205
Third Rail is thrilled to introduce Portland to another Obie winner, Samuel D. Hunter, and his bright new comedy about some very serious things, A Bright New Boise. Something’s coming to make things right. Something’s coming to ease your pain. Something’s coming to set you free. Something’s coming . . . Something’s coming . . . Something’s here? What are the odds of God’s final act taking place in the parking lot of the local Hobby Lobby? Better than you might think.
Reviews
“A marvelous and precariously balanced sculpture of working-class humor, deep thought, and spiritually tragic events”
Portland Monthly
[Third Rail’s] existence is a sustained argument for the ongoing relevance of theater as an art form”
