Nat Paradis is a Red Sox-loving part-time dad who manages Paradis’ Last Convenient Store, the last convenient place to get gas—or anything—before the Canadian border to the north and the North Maine Woods to the west. When an old flame returns to town, Nat gets a chance to rekindle a romance he gave up on years ago. But sparks fly as he’s forced to choose between new love and old. LAST GAS takes a hilarious and heartbreakingly hard look at love lost and found, and at what it means to “get back to happy.”

The cast includes Nat Paradis (Garrett Tucker); Troy Paradis-Pulcifer (Matthew Foster); Guy Gagnon (Thomas Vigil); Dwight Paradis (Lisle Justice); Cherry-Tracy Pulcifer (Michelle Newman); Lurene Legassey Soloway (Dana Powers); and Voiceovers - Dirk Green, Amanda Johnson, and Dan Parris.

“Last Gas” is Theatre Off The Square’s second show of its 23rd season. It is written by John Cariani, produced by special arrangement with Dramatists Play Service, Inc. This production is directed by Jacob Myers, with Madeline Eidelbach as the assistant director, and Mark Gillies serving as stage manager.
