SWIM by Liz Richardson
The sensation of water flowing around my body happily floating down a river, watching the banks pass me by. I like to take the same journey as a river it’s the lack of control which feels so good, it’s good to leave my life alone for a while. Liz grew up in the Lake District. She spent her childhood walking in the fells, playing in the lakes and in the river at the end of her garden. After time away living in the City, Liz returns to the hills and into a new village for a new chapter of her life. But when her new community is rocked by tragedy, Liz rediscovers outdoor swimming and how it can keep both her and her new friends afloat. Filled with humour and heart, live music and projection, Swim is a tender tale based on a true story. This edition was published to coincide with the run at Theatre by the Lake in Keswick, in March 2022.
