  3. Every Brilliant Thing @ ZACH Theatre


(Adult themes) Ice Cream. Water Fights. Things with Stripes. A boy sets out to count his blessings one-by-one and list every single special, ordinary thing about living to lift his Mom's spirits. The love list flourishes as he matures to adulthood, and when life deals a bitter blow, it proves valuable in ways he could never have predicted. Hilarious and uplifting, Every Brilliant Thing is an interactive, improvisational play about life, loss, and the lengths we'll go to for the ones we love.Every Brilliant Thing is the first of three ZACH360 productions this season. ZACH360 is ZACH's new artistic initiative to create dynamic theatre experiences that are intimate, revelatory, and fun. Actors are in close proximity to the audience and will create opportunities of active participation for patrons during the performance. Audience members are engaged in the storytelling, as we take a fresh approach to familiar work.Performance Schedule: Wednesday-Friday at 7:30 p.m. | Saturday at 2:30 & 7:30 p.m. | Sunday at 2:30 p.m.Age Recommendation: 13 and up Note: Topics of depression and suicide may be triggering for some.
