“It must be comforting to believe the end is nigh. The finality of the rapture would make other problems seem inconsequential, and the promise of a blissful afterlife could provide solace from daily suffering. But there’s also a darker side to this kind of faith: a true-believer need not participate in family or community because, to them, the final reckoning is what matters most. This tension is central to Samuel D. Hunter’s A Bright New Boise, the new play at the Woolly Mammoth Theatre Company. With likable, flawed characters in a uniquely American setting, the play uses profanity-laced humor to explore its religious themes in an engaging way,” reads our review of A Bright New Boise, currently in it’s already-extended-once-dare-I-say-the-rapture?-last-week at Woolly Mammoth Theatre Company.

The rapture should be full of love and celebration – hugging others, no divisions between races or classes, with confetti floating down from the sky. Love all, y’all!
the rapture should be just like kitty city http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jX3iLfcMDCw except with better music. paul simon maybe. (weds or sat… or thurs… or sun afternoon. please.)
Thursday at 8 and Sunday at 7
A rapture is that embarrassing moment in grade school where you forget to wear your pants.
Is there any real doubt that Enya will be the soundtrack of the Rapture? It fulfills all the needs of peace, calm, pain, agony and irony, no?

I rest my case.
Friday or Saturday, please.

A somewhat extended version of that exhilarating moment when you’re clinging to your harness on the Power Tower, after you’ve stopped wondering why you paid good money to terrorize yourself, but before the butterflies in your stomach feel like they actually might start to fly out of your throat.
(tonight, Saturday evening or Sunday).
The rapture is when someone starts a conga line where the first half is chugging along fine but there’s a break in the line because someone can’t get their shit together. As hard as that guy tries to run, he’s got half of a conga line behind him, pulling him back, and the next guy’s shoulders are always just out of reach. Definition of being left behind.
(Either Sunday show would be stellar! If not, Friday could work, too. Thank you!)
The rapture will be like a game show (have you won today’s prize??? No, sorry – you lost – sad trombone noise) taking place in one minute, but will seem like it stretches on for days.
(Friday at 8 pm or Saturday at 3 pm, if not, I’m sure I can make something work)
Friday @ 8pm / Sunday @ 7pm (actually I can in every other date or time)
The rapture should be a period of ecstasy shared by a group (don’t think just sexually please and neither like this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tg00YEETFzg&ob=av2e )
