It reminded me of when I was in a production of '1984' and at one performance, the guy playing the guard threw me a little too hard into the jail cell. We were wearing nylon jumpsuits and I slid down the stage, and just kept going, right off the stage and into the first row.

I climbed back up and just continued with the show, after apologizing to the lady I landed on.

Oh no, abba, you're still going to hell for liking girls, laughing at this video just means you're going to a lower level of hell.

not exactly the same (no one fell) but i remember durring a middle school production of peter pan, the boy playing john climbed into bed to pretend to sleep at the begining, and actually fell asleep. the director had to come out and wake him up.

"the boy playing john climbed into bed to pretend to sleep at the begining, and actually fell asleep."

I did a production of 'Kismet' and played a whirling dervish in the beginning. There were three of us, and our costumes were giant capes made out of rags. We were supposed to lay still the entire pre-show so that it looks like piles of rags that suddenly come to life during the overture.

I was placed right down front and center, and I fell asleep one night. The overture started, my eyes popped open and I was staring right at the front row of the audience (I guess I had rolled over in my sleep).

It sort of ruined the opening that night. Oops.

Many of you have probably already heard this--its passed around a lot amongst theater people--but its an episode of NPR's THIS AMERICAN LIFE that dissects the word "fiasco" using a small town production of "Peter Pan" that goes terribly wrong in just about every way.

If you haven't heard this...do enjoy! You can listen to it for free.
FIASCO!

What's with the person leaving after she falls of the stage?

Did her falling off the stage ruin the show for him?

I was in a production of Ring Round The Moon. The director set it up so that there was a ramp that went through the audeince down to the ground and then we would walk straight out.

One performance one of the kids in the play was making an exit down from the ramp. And suddenly he turned and just fell off ass first.
