Reading on the Mountain | Boise Contemporary Theater

Bogus Basin hosts the Boise Contemporary Theater Summer Reading Series  2024

Summer Reading Series By The Boise Contemporary Theater


What

Join Boise Contemporary Theater (BCT) on the mountain for a special reading of The Body’s Midnight by Tira Palmquist, directed by Jodeen Revere. What does it mean to be lost in America? Anne and her husband David are about to find out. Determined to put a troubling diagnosis in the rearview mirror, they set off on the perfect American road trip with a plan, a destination, an impressive list of cool spots to stop along the way, and a timeline that should put them in St. Paul just in time for the birth of their first grandchild. But what if this perfect plan is merely a distraction from the complicated, ridiculous, occasionally breathtaking, and often far messier journey they’d hoped to avoid? Bearing witness to the beauty of things, even as they disappear, Anne and David struggle to come to terms with the unexpected and unavoidable journey of their lives.
