*Synopsis:* Welcome to Almost, Maine, a town that’s so far north, it’s
almost not in the United States—it’s almost in Canada. And it almost
doesn’t exist. Because its residents never got around to getting organized.
So it’s just…Almost.

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.

*ALMOST, MAINE:* It’s love. But not quite.

*IMPORTANT:* This show is a series a vignettes with 2-3 characters in each.
If you are cast in this production, I plan on giving each actor cast 2 or
more roles in the show.   If you have any questions, feel free to e-mail
the director at  cmb164 at zips.uakron.edu
