Never Swim Alone by Daniel MacIvor

Loading map...

Two men enter a room. Two boys sit on a beach. They might be the same man, and they might have been the same boy, but it’s important that you know they are not. Two men, mirror images,

haunted and bound by the boys they once were, and a single moment during an endless summer.

Daniel MacIvor’s dark comedy is a game of one-upping, memory, nostalgia and petty rivalry that bristles with tension and then explodes. A story about the one who wins, and everyone and everything

that gets left behind.

Written in 1991, NEVER SWIM ALONE is eerily relevant today.

Featuring Jesse Bergen, Ian Mikita, Kerri Woloszyn
