We all fall!

Maak kennis met Danni, een aspirerend actrice die als schoonmaakster werkt in het Royal Hotel in Dublin. Elke kamer die ze schoonmaakt, vertelt een verhaal – van gebroken harten uit haar kindertijd tot een obsessie een beroemde acteur. Schoonmakers horen onzichtbaar te zijn, maar kunnen ook als spionnen fungeren, die het leven van anderen observeren en de waarheid blootleggen. 

Terwijl ze andermans rommel opruimt, komen verhalen uit haar eigen verleden naar boven. Over mislukte audities, en dromen bijna vergeten. Succes en falen, tranen en vreugde – hetzijn twee kanten van dezelfde munt. Als jij struikelt, valt of worstelt, dan groet Danni je! Een verhaal om je eraan te herinneren... we all fall!

“In these turbulent, sorrowful, and sometimes frightening times, Cullen offers a comforting alternative for how to cope with it all.” Theaterkrant

We all fall! is a solo performance in which Danni Cullen shines as both a storyteller and clown. Failure, rejection, and vulnerability aren’t often celebrated as essential parts of life. In fact, we tend to bury them beneath layers of shame. We try so hard to get things right… and yet, we often fall flat!

Meet Danni, an aspiring actress who works as a cleaner at Dublin’s Royal Hotel. Every room she tidies has its own story to tell – from broken childhood hearts to a secret obsession with a famous actor. Cleaners are meant to be invisible, yet they can also be spies, quietly witnessing lives unfold and truths emerge.

As Danni scrubs away at others’ messes, stories from her own past bubble to the surface. Tales of auditions gone wrong and dreams nearly forgotten. The joy and the sorrow, the tears and the laughter; they’re really just two sides of the same coin. If you’ve ever stumbled, fallen, or flailed… Danni sees you. She salutes you. This is a story to remind you: we all fall!

“Every anecdote contains a moment that breaks your heart—like her first boyfriend, who dumps her before they’ve even held hands, or her father, who lovingly disapproves of her uncertain career. Danni lets those moments hang in the air, absorbing the audience’s awkward, compassionate laughter. But then, she gently brushes the pain aside –refusing to let it darken the lightness of the room. All to show us: no matter how foolish or painful the rejection, maybe it’s better to find the humor in it, rather than dwell in the gloom.” Theaterkrant
