Swimmers

Coyotes evading police. Billboards predicting the end of the world. It’s been a strange day at the office and it’s only 9AM. A play exploring the relationships we take most for granted: those with the people we work with every day.

"Bonds has a terrific feel for the painful absurdities of human relationships. ‘Swimmers’ is just another day in the cookie-cutter contemporary workplace, but one in which many of the personal quirks, desires, insecurities and domestic problems emerge in deft strokes from the surface-intimacy between strangers who spend most of their days working side-by-side. And one in which office interactions may be imbued with the apocryphal fears of the day, whether of terrorism, climate change, coyotes or more mythical matters."
