IN A NUTSHELL: Fall in love with a long-time Play Club classic all over again.
ABOUT THE PLAY: On a cold, moonless night in the middle of winter, all is not quite what it seems in the remote, mythical town of Almost, Maine. As the northern lights hover in the star-filled sky above, Almost’s residents find themselves falling in and out of love in unexpected and often hilarious ways. Knees are bruised. Hearts are broken. But the bruises heal, and the hearts mend - almost - in this delightful midwinter night’s dream. ALMOST, MAINE is one of the most-produced plays in the U.S., recently surpassing A MIDSUMMER NIGHT’S DREAM. In a Play Club first, we are introducing our Rewind, a chance to revisit a play from our three-year archive!
FROM THE CRITICS: “A whimsical approach to the joys and perils of romance. Magical happenings bloom beneath the snowdrifts." - NY Times
“A charmer ... Unexpected magic lingers in the air like someone’s breath on a cold winter’s night. John Cariani aims for the heart by way of the funny bone." - The Star Ledger
“Utterly endearing ... It’s hard not to warm up to ALMOST, MAINE. A crowd-pleaser.” - Broadway.com
“Sweet, poignant and witty.” - NY Daily News
“A snowy charmer ... These nine tales of love in the time of frostbite have a winning flow that proves surprisingly contageious.” - NY Sun
THE NIGHT: Play Club is heaven for theatre lovers. The first half is a reading of a world-class script, the second is an open forum to talk about the theatre and anything else that may come up with fellow industry and audiences. You don't need to be anything coming in - just love good theatre. One thing's for sure: it's a blast!
