  3. The Soldier Dreams & Never Swim Alone


Open Fist Theatre Company returns to live, in-person performance with concurrent runs of two plays by celebrated Canadian playwright Daniel MacIvor. The Soldier Dreams is a darkly funny and moving play about life, death, grief and dancing. As David lies in a virus-induced coma, his lover, Richard, plays host to Davids family members, each of whom feel they had the most special connection. In this poignant homage to those we love who have left us, the audience becomes witness to everyones including Davids own memories of David. In the slyly witty and unexpectedly suspenseful Never Swim Alone, two men are locked in a ruthless competition of one-upmanship under the watchful eye of The Referee, a young woman with a secret connection to the boys these men used to be. The Soldier Dreams: Oct. 23 through Dec. 12: Saturdays @ 8:30 p.m. / Sundays @ 7 p.m. / Mondays @ 8:15 p.m.; PLUS 8 performances only of Never Swim Alone: See both plays in one evening Oct. 30 thru Nov. 21 only: Saturdays @ 8:30 p.m. (The Soldier Dreams) & 10 p.m. (Never Swim Alone) / Sundays @ 6 p.m. (Never Swim Alone) & 7 p.m. (The Soldier Dreams).
