Dive Into This is Not A Theatre Company’s

 

Pool Play 2.0

 

Conceived and directed by Erin B Mee

Text by Jessie Bear and Charles Mee

Choreography by Jonathan Matthews
 

 

 

Come sit at the edge of the pool with your feet in the water (literally!) and enjoy synchronized swimming, a snarky fish, water aerobics, an explorer in an inflatable boat, and an examination of America’s long, joyful, and complicated relationship with the swimming pool.

 

Pool Play 2.0 is an upcycled version of Pool Play (originally produced in 2014), featuring entirely new water dances by Jonathan Matthews, new scenes, new staging, and a new cast. The earlier version of Pool Play was hailed as “superb,” “joyous,” “profound,” “uplifting,” and “wet” by Show Business Weekly and Theatre Is Easy (http://www.theasy.com/Reviews/2014/P/poolplay.php).

 

This Is Not A Theatre Company’s previous work (Ferry Play, Versailles 2016, A Serious Banquet, Readymade Cabaret, and Where Have All The Glaciers Gone) has been featured in The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, American Theater magazine, Culturebot, New York Theatre Review, Theatre Is Easy, HowlRound, and in many other places.

 

Pool Play 2.0 features Caitlin Goldie (Wilderness), Lindsley Howard, Ashley Wren Collins, Christopher Morriss, and Jonathan Matthews.

 

Pool Play 2.0 runs for five weekends:

Fridays at 7:00pm on March 10, 17, 24, 31, and April 7, 2017

Saturdays at 8:00pm on March 11, 18, 25, and April 1, 8, 2017
