How did You learn to swim?
Learning to Swim is a one-woman show based on Nargiz’s real-life story where she takes you on a powerful journey of self-exploration and transformation through storytelling, multi-media and her original music.
Nargiz grew up in the Soviet Union which had a regimented style of living. Her soul craved artistic and creative life but she had to keep her voice silent. Even as a young girl she dreamed of moving to the US, but destiny had its own plans. It seemed that everything in life went against what she desired for herself. But during the most difficult period of her life, her dreams were reawakened and she found the strength to make it happen. Moving to the US as a single mom with her daughters had its challenges, but she found that staying in America was even more difficult.
This inspiring and encapsulating story reveals how life challenges, many faces of love and external struggles and turmoil lead to inner growth. It is about a woman who finds her voice which waited patiently for the right moment to be reborn.
