A short play I have written about two people, Elliot and Max, who were the perfect match for each other. They fell for one another quickly, but they met at the wrong time. The play plays with the idea of memory and how people effect our thoughts and actions. It asks the question: wouldn’t it be wonderful if we all got the opportunity to say all the things we ever wanted to say to a person that impacted us? We all have that person that ruined us, and though a lot of time has passed, Elliot is still grappling with the impression Max had left on him. In an effort to stop all the “what ifs” bouncing in his head, Elliot has created a circumstance in order to tell Max everything he wished he could have told her. An Almost was performed as part of the Thespis Festival on September 2016.
