A Story of Love, Power, told through dance, music, verse, and film.
What would you do if the person you loved most became the thing you had to stand against?
The Crone Universe continues to unfold, and this November, we invite you deeper into the mythology. This is the creation story. The origin of the schism.
We take you to the event that sets the universe of CRONE into motion: the moment before the fracture, when the world stood together… before love became a weakness and power became a weapon.
Story, Concept, choreography by Dorothy O'Shea Overbey
(in collaboration with the dancers ♥️)

Red Nightfall Dance Theatre is a home for visionary artists working at the edges of their disciplines. We gather dancers, musicians, filmmakers, designers, and poets to create experiences that transcend traditional performance, inviting audiences into living mythology.
With each performance, our work deepens and our community grows. This November, we reunite with costume designer Robby Durand of EmmaSis Designs (who we met at Rituals of Light), welcome poet David Burns as our narrative guide, and collaborate with the adventurous chamber music collective Density512. The evening also features a new short film created by Red Nightfall Artistic Director, Dorothy O'Shea Overbey.
