The Morrison Center brings the magic of Broadway to Boise
The Treasure Valley will be receiving a taste of Broadway as the Morrison Center for the Performing Arts ushers in its 2026-27 season of “Broadway in Boise.” From the biting wit of “The Book of Mormon” to the glamorous jazz of “The Great Gatsby,” theatregoers have much to look forward to this year. Starting off strong, the hit jukebox musical “& Juliet” begins the season, running from Oct. 20 to Oct. 25. This high-energy show re-imagines the classic tale of “Romeo and Juliet,” giving Juliet a second chance to find love and happiness after Romeo’s death. According to boise.broadway.com, “Juliet’s new story bursts to life through a playlist of pop anthems as iconic as her name including ‘Since U Been Gone,’ ‘Roar,’ ‘Baby One More Time,’ ‘Larger than Life,’ ‘That’s The Way It Is’ and ‘Can’t Stop the Feeling.’” “& Juliet” closes on Broadway and tour on Jan. 3, 2027. Sweeping onto the stage next is a Disney tale as old as time, “Beauty and the Beast,” running from Dec. 2 to Dec. 6. With legendary composer Alan Menkin and lyricist Tim Rice at the helm, “Beauty and the Beast” features classic songs such as “Be Our Guest,” “Something There” and “Beauty and the Beast.” Ringing in the new year comes “Mrs. Doubtfire: The New Musical Comedy,” running from Jan. 26 to Jan. 31, 2027. Based off the beloved film of the same name, this heartfelt show created by Karey Kirkpatrick and John O’Connell details the plight of an actor willing to do anything to see his kids, even if that means posing as a kindly old nanny. February brings the one-man play, “Mark Twain Tonight!” for one night only on Feb. 6. Starring Richard Thomas and originally conceived by Hal Holbrook, “Mark Twain Tonight!” utilizes Twain’s own notes and essays to deliver a hilarious, thought-provoking lecture, led by none other than Mark Twain himself. Knocking on the door of March comes the nine-timeTony award-winning musical, “The Book of Mormon,” running from March 30 to April 4. Brought to the stage by “South Park” creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone, “The Book of Mormon” is a satirical comedy about two Mormon missionaries and their travels to a remote Ugandan village to preach their faith.

Bishop Kelly wins fifth straight boys golf state title as Szentanai claims second straight individual title
The only real drama for the Bishop Kelly boys golf team on the way to its fifth straight 5A state championship Tuesday was which Knight would take home individual medalist honors. In the end, seniors Aidan Szentanai and Charlie Hilvers found themselves tied and battling in a playoff to decide which one took the individual state title, with Szentanai winning on the second tiebreaker hole to claim his second straight state title. “It was honestly, pretty surreal,” said Szentanai, a senior who is committed to golf at Boise State next season. “I’ve known (Hilvers) forever, since kindergarten and we’ve always talked about beating each other and this competitiveness. To actually have the chance to go head-to-head with something that actually means a lot to us was pretty cool. And winning four straight is pretty awesome.” Szentanai and Hilvers, who also finished runner-up last season, both finished with a 36-hole score of 4-under-par, a full five strokes ahead of any other golfer on the course as the Knights retained their team state title at The Links Golf Club in Post Falls. Bishop Kelly also had its other two seniors, Daniel Moodie and Roan Jarvis, finish in ninth and 10th place, respectively,

One Idaho train depot was built with bricks meant for a hotel in Tacoma, Washington. Decades later, crews picked the whole building up and moved it to make room for a highway. I love that kind of stubbornness. Railroad buildings were supposed to fade when the trains stopped coming. Instead,...
