Jamie Henry to perfrom in CSC play

CHADRON, NE (04/08/2013)(readMedia)-- Magic and humor on a clear, moonless evening in the middle of winter are featured in the next Chadron State College theater department production, "Almost, Maine." All is not quite what it seems in the 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 often hilarious ways.

Roger Mays, CSC theater professor and director of the play, said, "One thing that is very exciting is that this will be the first time on the Chadron State College stage for some of our new freshman talent such as Jamie Henry." Henry, of Torrington, Wyo., is a psychology major at CSC.

The stories all take place at 9 p.m. in nine different places in the remote, northern village. The New York Daily News described the show as "sweet, poignant, and witty." Audiences particularly enjoy the warmth and charm that the playwright, John Cariani, has woven into these tales. Each of these romantic comedies has an element of magic that surprises and delights all ages.

"Almost, Maine" premiered at the Portland Stage Company in 2004, opened off-Broadway in 2006, and has become one of the most-produced plays in the country.

Show dates are April 18 – 20 at 7:30 p.m. and April 21 at 2 p.m. All shows in Memorial Hall Auditorium. For Tickets call CSC Box Office at 308-432-6207 or e-mail boxoffice@csc.edu.
