The cast and creative team of Atlantic Theater Company's world premiere production Almost An Evening are currently in rehearsals with playwright and Academy Award-winning film-maker Ethan Coen's and Atlantic artistic director Neil Pepe.  The cast features F. Murray Abraham, Jonathan Cake, J.R. Horne, Jordan Lage , Mark Linn-Baker, Elizabeth Marvel, Mary McCann, Del Pentecost and Joey Slotnick.

Almost An Evening will begin previews Wednesday, January 9, 2008 for an official opening on Tuesday, January 22, and play a limited engagement through Sunday, February 10, 2008 Off-Broadway at Atlantic Stage 2 (330 West 16th Street).

Almost An Evening marks the first production of the 2007-2008 Atlantic Stage 2 season at the company's second stage theater, where two new plays are staged each season. Atlantic Stage 2's inaugural season featured Keith Reddin's Human Error and Kate Robin's ANON.

"In the world premiere of 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," explain press notes.

The design team for Almost An Evening will feature scenic design by Riccardo Hernandez, costume design by Ilona Somogyi, lighting design by Don Holder and sound design by Eric Shim and fight choreography by J. David Brimmer.

Almost An Evening will play Tuesday through Saturday at 8PM, Saturday matinees at 2:00pm and Sundays at 3PM & 7PM.  All tickets are $45 and available by calling Ticket Central at 212-279-4200 or visit www.ticketcentral.com There will be no Saturday matinee on January 12, 2008.
