From Olivier Award-nominated writer Duncan Macmillan (People, Places and Things), EVERY BRILLIANT THING comes to the West End for the very first time this summer with an outstanding cast featuring Lenny Henry, Ambika Mod, Sue Perkins and the show’s original co-creator Jonny Donahoe. Co-directed by Jeremy Herrin (Best of Enemies, Wolf Hall Trilogy, Ulster American, A Mirror), this unique and critically acclaimed play has become a global stage phenomenon, playing in over 80 countries worldwide. You’re seven years old. Mum’s in hospital. Dad says she’s ‘done something stupid’. She finds it hard to be happy. You start a list of everything that’s brilliant about the world. Everything worth living for. You leave it on her pillow. You know she’s read it because she’s corrected your spelling. A child attempts to ease their mother's depression by creating a list of all the best things in the world. Through adulthood, as the list grows, they learn the deep significance it has on their own life. Every Brilliant Thing is a comedy about the lengths we will go for those we love. NB THIS IS A ONE PERSON PLAY AND THE CAST WILL PERFORM IN ROTATION SO CHECK THE INFORMATION AND DATES WHEN BOOKING.
