The Firehouse Theatre Project has also announced auditions for A Bright New Boise, by Samuel D. Hunter, running Sept. 20 - Oct. 13, directed by Morrie Piersol.

Auditions will take place May 6 and 7 from 7-10pm at Firehouse Theatre Project.

Samuel D. Hunter won a 2011 Obie Award for Playwrighting for A Bright New Boise, which was nominated the same year for the Drama Desk Award for Outstanding Play. In this play, a disgraced evangelical from Northern Idaho takes a job at a Hobby Lobby franchise in Boise, Idaho in order to reconnect with an estranged son. But as his fellow employees begin to uncover dark secrets from his past, and his son becomes increasingly interested in his reasons for leaving his church, he must choose whether or not to have a normal life and a healthy relationship with his son, or hold onto the beliefs that have given his life meaning. Called a "dark but deeply empathetic comedy" by the Washington City Paper, A Bright New Boise was originally commissioned and produced by Partial Comfort Productions, NYC. September 20th - October 13th.
