Almost Maine is About Falling in, out of Love
Junior/Senior play runs this weekend at Lake Forest High School.
Lake Forest High School presents Almost, Maine starting Thursday (Oct. 13), and continuing Friday (Oct. 14) and Saturday (Oct. 15) at 7:30 p.m. each night in the Raymond Moore Auditorium at Lake Forest High School.
Tickets are $10 per person and $5 for students and seniors and may be purchased at www.lfhstheatre.org or at the door.
The Junior/Senior play is directed by Joe Pulio. Almost, Maine takes place on a cold, clear, 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.
The cast includes: Alex Levin, Lia Donovan, Sammy Dolgin, Liza Passalino, Andrew Piechota, Sara Ransom, Ellie Doyle, Mollie Blahunka, Connor Kenehan, Ingrid Lustig, Steven Schur, Alex Whittington-Baschoff, Colin Seikel, Mac Myles, Emily Neuberger, Jenny Poth, Erica Renee Werner and Ross Kugman.
