The Sweet Delilah Swim Club.jpg

The Sweet Delilah Swim Club
Blackbox

Five Southern women, bonded by their college swim team, annually escape to the "Sweet Delilah" beach cottage on North Carolina's Outer Banks. Over thirty-three years, this comedy follows Sheree, the determined team captain; Dinah, a successful lawyer facing personal struggles; Lexie, the vivacious serial bride; Vernadette, embracing chaos with wit; and Jeri Neal, embracing late motherhood. Through advice and laughter, they navigate life's challenges—men, sex, marriage, parenting, and aging. When adversity strikes in the second act, their enduring teamwork takes this hilarious and touching comedy in a surprising, poignant direction. "The Sweet Delilah Swim Club" tells the unforgettable story of five women and the friendships that last forever.
