Looking to take in some quality theater? Head to the Westhill High School Friday night at 7:30 p.m. to see this "student-produced production of Almost, Maine, one of the most produced plays in the past decade, [it's] sure to be a wonderful night of entertainment for the whole family! The play's story centers around nineteen residents of the remote, mythical town of Almost, Maine who find themselves falling in and out of love in unexpected and often hilarious ways. 'I think Almost, Maine can best be described as a midwinter night's dream. Or as a romance. A really funny, really sad romance... Nothing is what it seems. And this surprises people,' says John Cariani, the play's author. Tickets are $7 for students and $10 for adults."
