Almost Maine
DRAMA
DATES: Oct 25-30, 2021
TIME: 7:00pm
LOCATION: AHS Little Theater
Welcome to Almost, Maine, a place that’s so far north, it’s almost not in the United States. It’s almost in Canada. And it’s not quite a town, because its residents never got around to getting organized. So it almost doesn’t exist. One cold, clear, winter night, as the northern lights hover in the star-filled sky above, the residents of Almost, Maine, find themselves falling in and out of love in unexpected and hilarious ways. Knees are bruised. Hearts are broken. But the bruises heal, and the hearts mend—almost—in this delightful midwinter night’s dream.
The DramaDons are back for the first time in 2 years and we couldn’t be more excited!
