NEW SMYRNA BEACH -- "The Dixie Swim Club" Comedy Drama by Jessie Jones, Nicholas Hope, and Jamie Wooten, premieres at the Little Theatre of New Smyna Beach on April 9 and runs April 10, 11 15, 16, 17, 18.
Five Southern women, whose friendships began many years ago on their college swim team, set aside a long weekend every August to recharge their relationships.
Free from husbands, kids and jobs, they meet at the same beach cottage on North Carolina's Outer Banks to catch up, laugh and meddle in each other's lives.
The Dixie Swim Club focuses on four of those weekends and spans a period of 33 years.
As their lives unfold and the years pass, these women increasingly rely on one another, through advice and raucous repartee, to get through the challenges that life flings at them.
The funny and touching story of these five unforgettable women is about friendships that last forever.
