Almost, Maine
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, 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 hilarious ways. Knees are bruised. Hearts are broken. But the bruises heal, and the hearts mend—almost—in this delightful midwinter night’s dream.

Comedy Underground | Aidan Jones
Comedy Underground | Aidan JonesI grew up playing classical piano, but failed my conservatory audition at 18. I spent some time focusing on MDMA, then started stand-up in 2011. During the pandemic I came back to the piano, and so I wrote this show to combine them. It's my favourite piece, Chopin's Nocturne in Eb Major, presented with jokes by a bald dickhead with a beard.
