Don't miss seeing "Almost Maine," a student-directed play!
January 20 and 21, 7pm at the RHS PAC.
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 it's residents never get 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.
