You鈥檙e six years old. Mom鈥檚 in hospital. Dad says she鈥檚 鈥渄one something stupid.鈥� She finds it hard to be happy. So you start to make a list of everything that鈥檚 brilliant about the world. Everything that鈥檚 worth living for. #1) Ice cream. #2) Kung Fu movies. #3) Burning things. #4) Laughing so hard you shoot milk out your nose. #5) Construction cranes. #6) Me. You leave it on her pillow. You know she鈥檚 read it because she鈥檚 corrected your spelling. Soon, the list will take on a life of its own.
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.
