Every Brilliant Thing at Duluth Playhouse at the NorShor Theatre

Duluth Playhouse Underground is proud to present Every Brilliant Thing, running April 3 - 13, 2025 in The Lab. Starring Kayla Schiltgen, Every Brilliant Thing tells the story of a young child who creates a list of “everything worth living for” to cheer up their mother–like ice cream, things with stripes, and the color yellow. What starts as a heartfelt attempt to bring comfort soon evolves into a lifelong project, with the list growing to thousands of entries, ranging from small, everyday pleasures to profound moments of connection. This moving and surprisingly hilarious immersive experience provides a life-affirming jolt of humanism, reminding audiences to pay attention to life’s smallest joys—and to each other.
