"Laura Gordon's creative direction makes each scene sing, full of real, engaging people. We watch their hearts break and mend again. Each story seems to end at just the right time." - Wisconsin State Journal
On a cold, clear, winter night, the northern lights hover over the remote town of Almost, Maine. All is not quite what it seems as the town's residents find themselves falling in and out of love in hilariously unexpected, and often unusual ways. Told through a series of eight stories, this enchanting midwinter night's dream touches audiences with laughter, heartbreak and hope. Directed by Milwaukee Rep resident actor Laura Gordon, Almost, Maine features Rep resident actors Gerard Neugent and Deborah Staples, and regional favorites Elizabeth Ledo (Milwaukee Rep guest actor) and Steve Haggard (American Players Theatre), who each play multiple roles as the residents of the town.
