Photo Flash: First Look at Sarab Kamoo, Aral Gribble and More in Williamston's BOOM

Mid-Michigan's award winning professional theatre company, Williamston Theatre, located at 122 S. Putnam Street in downtown Williamston, starts the 2012-2013 with boom by Peter Sinn Nachtrieb. BroadwayWorld has a first look at the show below.

Something is about to explode. A grad student's online personal ad lures a mysterious journalism student to his subterranean research lab for a "casual encounter", but there's nothing casual about this particular evening! She discovers that he actually fears the end of the world is at hand . . . and from there things get weird! Will they survive? Will their casual encounter lead to another big bang? What's going on in the fishbowl? What's our place in the universe? And who is that woman playing the timpani? This epic and intimate comedy spans billions of years and will keep you laughing 'til the unexpected end. Contains mature language and themes.

The cast of boom consists of Aral Gribble (Red, White and Tuna, Dead Man's Shoes), Sarab Kamoo (Panache) and Alissa Nordmoe.
