About Every Brilliant Thing
What’s on the list of every brilliant thing worth living for? Ice cream. Laughing so hard you shoot milk out of your nose. This deeply moving and unexpectedly uplifting play follows one person’s journey to remind their mother - and themselves - of all the things that make life brilliant. Told with warmth and humour, it’s a powerful celebration of resilience and hope.
It’s worth the applause

- Throughout its 8-week run, Every Brilliant Thing will be performed by a rotating lineup of celebrated stars, including Lenny Henry, Ambika Mod, Sue Perkins, and Jonny Donahoe. Each brings their own voice to this universal story, making every performance a singular experience.
