About

A tender, witty and unforgettable story about love, identity and the courage to be yourselfdont miss the opportunity to discover what audiences and critics have been celebrating. Following a sold-out London run, Damn Cheek Productions proudly presents its multi-award-nominated production of Brendan Murray's Learning How to Dive.

What do you say when you answer the door to a man youve never met before?
Especially when youve known him for 30 years?
Where do you start? Where does it end?
And how do you begin to understand discovering that the person you have shared 50 years of your life with is not who you thought they were?
By turns tense, tender and darkly funny, Learning How to Dive tells the story of three people brought together by shared loss, buried truths and the unexpected possibilities of connection.

Written by, and featuring multi-award-winning playwright, Brendan Murray described by The Guardian as one of the countrys most compassionate dramatists Learning How to Dive explores love, loss, identity and the courage to embrace lifes unexpected tides.

As three lives become entwined, assumptions about family, sexuality, ageing and belonging are challenged, creating a moving and profoundly human exploration of what it means to live authentically, love honestly and be true to yourself.
