“A higher-concept and more clever version of Hollywood hits like ‘Love Actually’ and ‘Valentine’s Day’.”- The New York Times

Welcome to Almost, Maine, the way life should be! One cold, clear Friday night in the middle of winter, while the northern lights hover in the sky above, Almost’s residents find themselves falling in and out of love in the strangest ways. Knees are bruised. Hearts are broken. Love is lost, found, and confounded. And life for the people of Almost, Maine will never be the same. The show runs November 16-18 at 7pm and November 19 at 2pm.
