FALLING

Thu 14 May 2026

Come and put your arms around me I need someone and I’m falling through the cloudy death of a dream And if I hit the ground I’ll be dead Dead and alone In my dream

The walls are closing in: a young woman dreams of a better life – she wants to break away from her urge to smash things, and to find her tribe. But falling in love sparks more chaos and her dream-world reality continues to conspire against her. Will she ever find her freedom?

FALLING is an experience on the borderlines of theatre, dance and mime, devised and performed by Open Theatre‘s ensemble company.

“the most life-affirming piece of theatre that I have ever seen”

“brave and theatrically brilliant”

“surreal, dark, and daring”

“the most validating piece of disability justice theatre that I have ever seen.”
