a dance/theatre play

Why do we fall in love? Or out of love?
How do we respond to heartbreak?
Set in San Francisco, this sometimes hilarious, sometimes devastating dance theatre piece chronicles the lives of three friends as they seek romantic fulfillment. 

Inspired by the collages of Pina Bausch and Charles Mee, never fall... takes Abby, Emma, and Raphael on a journey of empowerment, joy, tragedy, and deliverance. 

See our never fall... Kickstarter!

DDO is a madcap fire drill with a shot of theatre, an infusion of song & dance, a dollop of comedy, a spoonful of audience participation, and a sprinkling of performance art. 
At DDO, the audience orders the show! You select the acts you want to see, while we dash to perform them all in a race against the clock -- if we succeed, everyone gets a prize -- so its a bit of a game show, too! 
  • DDO featured writer/performers Steve Budd, Alexander Lydon, Gloria McDonald, LeAnna Sharp, Isabel Siragusa, and Maura Tang
