ON ONE CONDITION to Make U.S. Premiere at SoHo Playhouse

NY's SoHo Playhouse in association with Dan Daw Creative Projects and Murmuration (AUS) present will present the US debut of ON ONE CONDITION, directed by Graham Adey and performed by Dan Daw. It will play at the SoHo Playhouse (15 Vandam Street), from May 18 - 26, 2017.

On One Condition draws on stories from Dan Daw's lived experiences as a man living with cerebral palsy. It asks us to question our own perceptions of normal while offering a stripped back look at the world we live in. We invite you into Dan's childhood home and on a journey overseas to share in one man's undying search for perfection, as he attempts to hold the world on his shoulders in all its beauty and grotesqueness. 'Expect to have your expectations shattered. This work will stay with you' Broadway World. 'A masterful combination of dance and theatre that will ensure you leave the show moved' The Advertiser, Adelaide. Winner of Best Theatre Adelaide Fringe awards.

"Dan and Graham have created quite an extraordinary piece of theatre. I have rarely been moved as profoundly as I was while attending in Adelaide. Dan's sensibility and awareness of self certainly motivate us to examine our own condition(s) with a fresh look." - SoHo Playhouse, Artistic Director, Darren Lee Cole

"This work has been three years in the making. Graham and I are so much looking forward to sharing what has become such a special show with a New York audience." - writer/performer Dan Daw
