“One of the things I love about the work made by Dante or Die is that every project is so different, so surprising and that’s rare.” - Lyn Gardner
Dante or Die makes bold and ambitious site-specific performances that tour across the UK and internationally. Their productions gently transform ordinary spaces to create unique and intimate theatrical experiences.
Led by co-founders Daphna Attias and Terry O’Donovan, their original productions and engagement projects interrogate and celebrate contemporary human stories that take place in everyday spaces - from hotel rooms to swimming pools to cafés. Over recent years they have been experimenting with digital storytelling, including celebrated video podcast User Not Found in partnership with The Guardian.
An independent arts charity, they regularly collaborate with leading arts venues across the UK and internationally including Traverse Theatre, The Lowry and BAM New York alongside grassroots organisations in the localities in which they make work. Dante or Die are SITELINES Associate Artists at South Street Reading, which champions performances in unusual spaces.
