This celebration of the mating game takes on the truths and myths behind that contemporary conundrum known as “the relationship”. Act I explores the journey from dating to love and marriage, while Act II reveals the agonies and triumphs of in-laws and newborns, family car trips, and growing older. This hilarious revue pays tribute to those who have loved and lost, to those who have fallen on their face at the portal of romance, and to those who have dared to ask, ”What are you doing Saturday night?”


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. Non-musical comedy.

Jonathan Larson’s Broadway musical based loosely on Puccini’s opera La Boheme follows a year in the lives of seven friends struggling to live and pay their rent in New York’s East Village. ”Measuring their lives in love,” these starving artists strive for success and acceptance while enduring the obstacles of poverty, illness, and the AIDS epidemic. One of the longest running shows on Broadway, RENT was the winner of the 1996 Pulitzer Prize for Drama and 4 Tony Awards.
