ST. JOSEPH, Mich. — The Twin City Players (TCP) announces the March mainstage production of the 2014-2015 season, the southern comedy “Dixie Swim Club” by Jessie Jones, Nicholas Hope and Jamie Wooten, directed by Larry Nielsen.

In “Dixie Swim Club,” five Southern women, whose friendships began many years ago on their college swim team, set aside a long weekend every August to recharge those relationships. Free from husbands, kids and jobs, they meet at the same beach cottage on North Carolina’s Outer Banks to catch up, laugh and meddle in each other’s lives.

The cast of “Dixie Swim Club” includes Christine Sloan as Sheree, Beth Anderson as Lexie, Beth Sekellick as Jeri Neal, Beth DeCoursey as Dinah and Peggy Harrington as Vernadette.

Assisting Nielsen are Assist Director Donna Metz, Technical Director Scott Bradford, Lighting and Sound Operators Ian Bradford, Bryce McNeil and Natalie Smiy, Stage Manager Beth Fanning, Student Stage Manager and Backstage Crew Ariel Higgins, Set Designer Michael Seymoure, Costumers Barbara Klein, Peggy Hamel, Sarah Nadolski and Carol Sizer, Properties Master Debi Robertson, Hair and Makeup Consultant Beth Sekellick and Prompters Mary Rose Nielsen and Rose Marie Roth.
