Not-To-Be-Missed!

"A whimsical approach to the joys and perils of romance. Magical happenings bloom beneath the snowdrifts."

- The New York Times

 

 

 

 

Dear Beloved IT Patron,

 

The Invisible Theatre continues its landmark 53rd Anniversary Season with ALMOST, MAINE, a magical, romantic play by John Cariani and directed by Nancy Davis Booth. The stellar ensemble features: Shannon Elias, Sean Hazen, Jon Lee, Molly McKasson, Sean Patrick, and Chelsey Smith.

 

Welcome to Almost, Maine, a place that's so far north, it's almost not in the United States. It's almost in Canada. And it's not quite a town, because its residents never got around to getting organized. So it almost doesn't exist. One cold and clear, winter night, as the northern lights hover in the star-filled sky above, the residents of Almost, Maine, find themselves falling in and out of love in unexpected and truly hilarious ways. Knees are bruised.

Hearts are broken. But the bruises heal, and the hearts mend—almost. Looking forward to seeing you all at this delightful midwinter night's dream!

In the segregated, elitist world of 1950s amateur lawn tennis, two outsiders — one an African-American, and the other a Jewish Englishwoman — join forces to dominate centre court and revolutionize the sport. Althea Gibson and Angela Buxton were not only unbeatable doubles partners but lifelong friends and two barrier-breaking female champions. Their example has much to teach us today about overcoming discrimination and transcending personal tragedy. SWEET SPOT explores their climb to the peak of their sport, decline into relative obscurity and coming-to-terms through the power of a singular friendship.

Several years ago, Fred found himself on a mission to explore every California Mission. What started out as a 'geek's road trip' became an examination of his fellow tourists and Mission personnel. Some were experts on the Catholic Church, a few experts on Native American history, and others are experts on…everything else. Yet, they all seem to have one thing in common: they are all experts on which famous black person Fred resembles.
