Every Brilliant Thing

Wed 11 Feb 2015

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 worth living for:

1. Ice cream
2. Kung fu movies
3. Me

A new play about depression and the lengths we will go to for those we love. Every Brilliant Thing returns to the UK hot from a 16-week run off-Broadway.

Roundabout at Regency Square

Paines Plough is the national theatre of new plays. Its Roundabout auditorium is a beautiful pop-up, in-the-round theatre which pitches up in Regency Square for the duration of Brighton Festival 2015. A self-contained 168-seat circular auditorium that flat packs into a lorry, Roundabout has travelled around the UK bringing the nation’s best playwrights to people’s doorsteps.
