Swimmer (68)

[Bruce Barton]

In the spirit of Ric's recent post...

Many of you will have seen the script-in-progress of _Swimmer (68)_ by Ker Wells recently included in CTR 145. Pil Hansen and I have also published and presented several times (including at CATR) on our work on this production. _Swimmer (68)_ previews tonight, May 24th, and opens in its premiere production on the 26th. Details are listed below and on the attached flyer. 

If you're in (or close to) Toronto, we hope you'll join us.

Swimmer (68)
“There are three things to remember.  Relax, reach, and follow through.”

In Swimmer (68), Wells and collaborators Bruce Barton (director), Richard Windeyer (sound design), Cameron Davis (video design), Pil Hansen (dramaturge), and Laird MacDonald (lighting design) weave a story combining historical and fictional events, images, and sounds with the performer’s own memories of childhood. Entering a blue velvet room, the audience descends into the pool of memory and a collision between personal recollection and the ubiquitous power of media.

Swimmer (68) previews May 24th and 25th and runs May 26th to June 4th at the Glen Morris Studio Theatre, 4 Glen Morris Street, Toronto.

Performances are Tues. to Sat. at 8 pm, Sunday, May 29th at 2 pm.

Reservations: 416 978 7986

Preview Tix: $10   Regular Tix:  $20  Students/Seniors: $15

Swimmer (68) has been created with support from The Toronto Arts Council, The Ontario Arts Council, and the U of T Graduate Centre for Study of Drama.
