Créations interdisciplinaires nous tombons tous | We All Fall Down

WAFD strives to create pathways to a more empathetic world through the collective experience of the performing arts. It is our mission to create a space where music and dance meet as equal partners, inviting audiences to dive deep into the imaginary and reflect on their own personal stories.

WAFD formalizes a 20-year collaboration between choreographer Helen Simard and composer Roger White. Under their artistic co-direction, the company examines the relationship between movement and sound, in order to create vibrant, surprisingly organic, highly emotional shows where performers are in a constant state of metamorphosis. Their interdisciplinary approach brings together diverse, bilingual teams of collaborators from dance, music, theatre, poetry and visual art practices, in order to examine and celebrate the complexity of the human condition through paradoxical works that are at once beautiful and haunting, accessible and provoking, familiar and strange. WAFD creates shows for both adult and young audiences, which have been presented in Quebec, Canada, Europe and Africa.
