THE PLAY:
“ALMOST, MAINE” AT THE GIFT THEATRE
On a 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, Almost's residents find themselves falling in and out of love in unexpected and hilarious ways; knees are bruised and hearts are broken, but the bruises heal and the hearts mend—almost—in this delightfully charming midwinter night's dream.

A four course Northeastern Seafood Dinner For Two @ The Gale Street Inn

  • Crabcake Appetizer
  • New England Chowder
