SETTING
This play is set in the present, at various locales in Almost, Maine, a small town in far northern Maine that doesn't quite exist. All events transpire over the same ten minutes--from around 8:50 to a bit after 9 PM--on a cold, clear, moonless, slightly surreal Friday night in the middle of the deepest part of a Northern Maine winter.
