Description:

Every Brilliant Thing is a play by Duncan Macmillan and Jonny Donahoe about a child who starts a list of "brilliant things" to cheer up their mother who suffers from depression, a list that grows and evolves as they navigate life's challenges, exploring themes of mental health, resilience, and human connection through humor and audience participation. The one-person show, often performed with audience members playing roles, is a poignant and funny ode to life's small joys, with a content warning for adult themes like depression and suicide.
