The Prime Time Players will be presenting “The Dixie Swim Club” at 7 p.m. on Thursday in ULM’s Spyker Theatre.

ULM students, faculty and staff can attend a free dress rehearsal of the show at 6 p.m. on Wednesday in ULM’s Spyker Theatre.

The play focuses on five women who met 30 years ago. Since then, the five women meet every August.

“I love seeing the friendships of these five women change and ripen over time,” said Mara Loeb, director of International Student Programs and Services.

The play is produced by ULM’s  Catherine Wilson and the cast includes faculty members Marsha McGee and Loeb as well as other community members.

This particular play is a Reader’s Theatre production.

“Rather than memorized lines, they use their scripts, and there are few or minimal props, costumes, etc.,” said Wilson, associate professor of communication studies. “It’s a difference in the level of actualized representation (traditional play) vs. suggested representation (Reader’s Theatre).”

Admission is $15, and refreshments will be provided at intermission.

Proceeds from the production will go towards Philanthropic Educational Organization International Projects.
