AIRSWIMMING

Honors Acting Capstone

AIRSWIMMING by Charlotte Jones is based on a true story of two women living in 1920s England incarcerated in a mental institution for acting contrary to what was considered acceptable behavior for women at the time. Forgotten by their families, the pair forms a unique bond to battle out their demons over a 50 year period in the asylum. They adopt alter-egos to survive as they act out their fantasies of escape and rage against an unjust system. 

Directed by K. Elizabeth Stevens
Performed by Michaela Shuchman '16 & Michelle Johnson '16
