Boise Spectrum


Neon-lit entertainment complex
7701 West Overland Road
(Overland Road and Interstate 84)
Boise, ID 83709
United States
+1 208 376 8521
Like a Las Vegas-style beacon in Idaho's sagebrush desert, this entertainment complex lights up the night sky. Neon, stretching seven miles, highlights this Boise anomaly. Its flagship business is the Edwards Boise Stadium 21 & IMAX. Ameritel Inn-Boise Spectrum sits on the property, as well as several chain restaurants like the Cracker Barrel, McGrath's Fish House and the popular Chuck-A-Rama. The complex attracts families from all over the valley.

Edwards 21 Cinemas


Multiplex movie watching
7701 Overland Road
Boise, ID 83709
United States
+1 208 377 1700
http://www.edwardscinemas.com
Put your quarter-rolls away; it is not a casino. Despite enough neon lighting to make Las Vegas jealous, this giant movie theater mall is film watching at its best. Armed with 21 theaters - including five 450-seaters that mimic classic Hollywood theater; this movie house provides superior digital sound and comfortable high-backed chairs. If you are slight of height, don't worry, the theaters' inclines are well designed.

Spontaneous Productions


Convenience store hosts theater company
2350 Vista Avenue
Boise, ID 83705
United States
+1 208 368 0405
A converted convenience store is the home of this alternative theater company. A refurbished car wash is the set construction and rehearsal center. Although the surroundings are original, this small company finally has a permanent space after using four different venues over the years. Having produced about 13 plays since its inception in 1996, the company offers seating for about 67 people. Productions have included Comfort and Joy and Sweet Illusion.

Stage Coach Theatre


Dare to do it live!
5296 Overland Road
(Hillcrest Shopping Center)
Boise, ID 83705
United States
+1 208 342 2000
http://www.stagecoachtheatre.c...
When a theater company uses a motto like, "Dare to do it live!" you know you are in for something original or possibly risque. Don't worry though, the talented troupe of actors are fully clothed while performing some of the best contemporary American theater. Operating out of the Hillcrest Shopping Mall, this community theater has performed plays by such well-known playwrights as Neil Simon. Performances have also included "Love, Sex and the I.R.S." by William Van Zandt and Jane Milmore and "Cobb" by Lee Blessing.
