A thoughtful and meditative two-hander, Samuel D. Hunter's extraordinary play is both intimate and expansive as it explores themes of parenthood, financial insecurity and empathy. A Case for the Existence of God unfolds in a cubicle where two seated people unexpectedly choose to bring one another into their fragile worlds. Keith, a mortgage broker, and Ryan, a yogurt plant worker seeking to buy a plot of land that belonged to his family many decades ago, realize they share a "specific kind of sadness." At this desk in the middle of America, loan talk opens up into a discussion about the chokehold of financial insecurity and a bond over the precariousness of parenthood. With humor, empathy and wrenching honesty, Hunter commingles two lives and deftly bridges disparate experiences of marginality.
SAMUEL D. HUNTER’S other plays include The Whale, A Bright New Boise, Greater Clements, Lewiston/Clarkston, The Few, A Great Wilderness, Rest, Pocatello, The Healing, and The Harvest. He has been awarded a MacArthur “Genius” Fellowship, a Whiting Writers Award, an Obie Award, a Hull-Warriner Award, and a Drama Desk Award. He holds degrees in playwriting from NYU, the Iowa Playwrights Workshop, and Juilliard. He holds an honorary doctorate degree from the University of Idaho.
