When We Fall

BY TAMARA SEARLE / DIRECTED BY XAN COLMAN

A collision between three people. Tracey is sneaking out late at night. David is keeping secrets. Nina is always imagining things. Combinations of desire, lies, fate, and recklessness lead three people to stumble. As they do, they are forced to contemplate how to live afterwards.

Developed from her own award-winning short-story, When We Fall is Tamara Searle’s first work for stage, adapted in collaboration with director Xan Colman. Tamara’s play explores the psychological, spiritual and physical manifestations of falling.
