Have a splash with ACTION Theatre's all-new production of Desmond Sim's acclaimed sexy comedy The Swimming Instructor. Dive into a funny and touching tale about the undercurrents of love, lust and life as experienced by a down-to-earth swimming instructor, a vivacious rich girl and a go-getting advertising executive.

Get ready to dive into a hilarious and poignant tale about the undercurrents of love, lust and loss as experienced by a down-to-earth swimming instructor, a vivacious rich girl and a go-getting advertising executive.

Guan is a no-nonsense swimming instructor who teaches kids swimming at public pools. Without him knowing, he's become an object of affection (and desire!)

Will Guan’s admirers discover what's lurking beneath his seemingly calm surface?

Can he teach them something deeper than a few swimming strokes?

And why is he always letting himself sink right down to the bottom of the pool?
