Theatre--Production

Iberia Performing Arts League (IPAL) announces that its summer production, The Dixie Swim Club, by Jessie Jones, Nicholas Hope and Jamie Wooten will open on June 4th at IPAL's Essanee Theater in New Iberia.

The play is a comedy/drama that deals with the very different lives of five Southern women who met as members of their college championship swim team and formed a lifelong bond of friendship. Reviewers have called this a hilarious and touching comedy about friendships that last forever. It is the perfect start to the summer season.

Directed by Mac Stearns, the cast includes Joyce Case as Sheree-–the team captain, Susan Clark as Dinah-–a prominent attorney, Stephanie Judice as Lexie--an often married event planner, Gladys Chapman as Jeri Neal-–a ditzy ray of sunshine and Donna Berard as Vernadette-–one constantly followed by a black cloud.

There will be seven public performances of The Dixie Swim Club on June 4th,5th,6th,11th,12th and 13th (Thursday through Saturday with a 7:30 pm curtain) and one Sunday matinee on June 7th at 3 pm.

Tickets are $10 and may be purchased at Paul’s Flower Shop, Delaune’s Pharmacy, or Accentrics in New Iberia or at the door.

Additional information may be obtained by calling IPAL at (337)364-6114.
