Show Description:

Rediscover all that life has to give.

You’re six years old and your mom’s in the hospital because, as your dad says, she “finds it hard to be happy”.  So you start to make a list of everything that’s brilliant about the world. Everything that’s worth living for. 1. Ice cream 2. Water fights 3. Staying up past your bedtime and being able to watch TV. 4. The color yellow 5. Things with stripes

You leave it on her pillow. You know she’s read it because she’s corrected your spelling. Soon, the list will take on a life of its own.  319. Laughing so hard you shoot milk out of your nose  517. Knowing someone well enough to get them to check your teeth for broccoli.

This surprising and immersive theatrical experience speaks openly about depression, mental illness and suicide. With poignant humor and joy, Every Brilliant Thing takes us on a journey through grief, healing, falling in love, and rediscovering all that life has to give.

Content Transparency: Verbal descriptions of depression, self-harm, and suicide. There will be some warm and inclusive audience participation.
