The theatrical performance, directed by Ramón Garrido, sets nine different stories of love and disloyalty in an imaginary location during the night of Christmas. According to La Missiva, the company responsible for producing this work, love becomes the main element of these narratives because the search for love "is one of the things most human beings yearn for".  

On 30 October at 5:30 p.m. the public will be able to enjoy a free session (limited to the seating capacity) of the original stage production by the American actor and playwright John Cariani.  

Almost, Maine, defined by the American artist as "a winter night's dream", was his first play to premiere on Broadway in 2005 at the Daryl Roth Theatre. This play has been praised numerous times by American critics for its look on life and love within fictional stories.
