Every Brilliant Thing

Following an international tour, the hugely acclaimed Every Brilliant Thing by Duncan Macmillan with Jonny Donahoe will embark on its third nationwide tour in autumn 2016.

A play about depression and the lengths we go to for those we love which has won plaudits around the world. Based on true and untrue stories.

The Guardian - "Heart-wrenching, hilarious...possibly one of the funniest plays you'll ever see."

The Telegraph - "Funny, clever, and surprisingly uplifting."

Time Out London - "Filled to the brim with joy...beautiful, heart wrenching and very funny."

Everything that's worth living for.

- Ice Cream
- Kung Fu Movies
- Burning Things
- Laughing so hard you shoot milk out your nose
- Construction cranes
- Me

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.
