Almost, Maine
9783 Avenue of Nations, San Diego, 92131
Almost is a (nonexistent) town in northern Maine where just about everyone, in John Cariani's nine surreal sketches, is so innocent that a kiss can make their month. Each sketch, a variation on love's zodiac, turns on an impossible twist, some fanciful, most just cute. The fascinating "Getting It Back," in which a woman demands back all the love she gave him — and returns hers in big red bags — sets a standard the others don't reach. Many in the audience at Scripps Ranch gave the four-person cast a standing ovation. Savvy director Robert May put DeNae Steele, Samantha Ginn, Benjamin Cole, and Joshua Jones through their paces so well they merit more challenging material.
