Almost Maine

I'll offer extra credit to students who attend the JCCC production of Almost Maine at noon Friday, 11/20/9. It will be performed in the Polsky Theatre, and is directed by a friend of mine, Beate Pettigrew.

Students wanting extra credit will need to write a short summary (3- 5 sentences long), and a more extensive personal response that compares the work to other popular performances and evaluates the overall experience. From the publicity flyer from the theatre department:
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.
