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. </span></p>
<p style="margin:0px 0px 8px;font-size:11px"><span style="letter-spacing:0px"><span style="white-space:pre-wrap"> </span>One cold, clear <span><span>Friday</span></span>
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. </span></p>
<p style="margin:0px 0px 8px;font-size:11px"><span style="letter-spacing:0px"><b>ALMOST, MAINE:</b> It’s love. But not quite. </span></p><p style="margin:0px 0px 8px;font-size:11px"><span style="letter-spacing:0px"><b>IMPORTANT:</b>
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
