THEATER REVIEW    "Get out of the cold and into the seats for 'Almost, Maine.'  ... I absolutely loved this latest offering by Schenectady Civic Players. . . . The production is remarkable.  Director (and lighting designer) Donald Mealy has assembled a production staff whose talent is everywhere evident. . . the pleasure you will have is the result of his vivid imagination and attention to detail . . . The 19 characters are played by only four performers -- but what performers! . . Got cabin fever? Reconnect this week at Schenectady Civic Players.

(Wednesday & Thursday 7:30 pm, Friday & Saturday at 8 pm,  Sunday matinee only at 2:30 pm)
Called "a whimsical approach to the joys and perils of romance" by the New York Times, Almost, Maine takes place on a cold, clear, moonless night in the middle of winter, where all is not what it seems in the remote, mythical town of Almost, Maine.  As the northern lights hover in the sky above, Almost's residents find themselves in and out of love in unexpected and often hilarious ways.  Nine tales of love play out: knees are bruised and hearts are broken, but the wounds heal.  It's a delightful midwinter night's dream.  

In the four-person cast, all playing multiple roles, are Monica Cangero, Jimmy Cupp, Cristine M. Loffredo, and Duncan Morrison, all veterans of previous Schenectady Civic Players and many other productions throughout the Capital District.
