Directed by Atlantic Artistic Director Neil Pepe, Almost An Evening also stars Tony Award® nominee Johanna Day (Proof), Steppenwolf Theater Company member Tim Hopper (Obie Award winner, More Stately Mansions), J.R.

In Ethan Coen's Almost An Evening, three short plays unsuccessfully tackle important questions. In "Waiting", someone waits somewhere for quite some time. In "Four Benches", a voyage to self-discovery takes a British intelligence agent to steam baths in New York and Texas, and to park benches in the U.S. and U.K. In "Debate", cosmic questions are taken up. Not much is learned.
Almost An Evening sold out before previews began at Atlantic Stage 2 on January 9th, opened January 22nd, and played a limited engagement through February 10th, 2008.
Almost An Evening is produced by Atlantic Theater Company, Art Meets Commerce and Carole Shorenstein Hays. It will play Tuesday through Saturday at 8:00pm, with Saturday matinees at 2:00pm and Sunday performances at 3:00 and 7:00pm.
