Inventive props help tell the story in "The Art of Swimming."
Tiny Dynamite will present the one-woman show, "The Art of Swimming," as part of the company's seventh A Play, A Pie and A Pint Series this December.
For $20, theatergoers can watch Lee Minora command the stage while enjoying a slice of pizza and a beer.
The actress tells an imaginative story of celebrity-athlete Mercedes Gleitze in "The Art of Swimming," which begins in 1927, after 26-year old Gleitze successfully swims the 20-mile crossing of the English Channel.
"Told with inventive props, enchanting surprises and accompanied by live music, 'The Art of Swimming' will inspire anyone who has ever tested the motto, 'Nothing great is easy,'" according to Tiny Dynamite.
Performances will take place in the evenings between Wednesday, Dec. 6 and Sunday, Dec. 17 at Headhouse Cafe, where all seating will be cabaret style.
