Paines Plough Theatre Company

You're six years old. Mum's in hospital. Dad says she's 'done something stupid'. 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. Kung Fu Movies
3. Burning Things
4. Laughing so hard you shoot milk out your nose
5. Construction cranes

A new play about depression and the lengths we will go to for those we love, based on true and untrue stories.

The performance of Every Brilliant Thing involves members of the audience, making each night unique.

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

Age Suitability: 14+
