Support Utility Player Erin Slimak in her Production: "Almost Maine" 

Erin Slimak, voted one of the best actresses in Reno in 2009, is involved in a new production next month. Erin recently finished a role in another Reno Little Theater production - Cliffhanger in the Fall.  Reno Little Theater is putting on a production of Almost Maine taking place at Hug High School for the first two weeks in February.Here is a short description of the play:

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.

The show also features fabulous local actress, friend to the Utility Players, and extra in our musical Amanda Alvey. Amanda recently finished a production Romeo and Juliet and is lending her creative and artistic talent to this show.

It is important that we support local performers and performances in order to keep a thriving and rich theater culture here in Reno. Tickets are $12 for adults, $10 for seniors, and $6 for students and has multiple shows and show times so make sure to check it out and go see it.
