Players' Winter Season Reignites With the Award-Winning EVERY BRILLIANT THING

By:

Players' Winter Season Reignites With the Award-Winning EVERY BRILLIANT THING ImageFollowing the success of Jacob Marley's Christmas Carol, the Peterborough Players Winter Season returns to the stage with an award winning production of the comedy/drama Every Brilliant Thing.

When a boy's mother loses faith in the world, he starts a list of everything that's brilliant in the world to convince her to stay: things with stripes, ice cream, Christopher Walken's hair. Joel Ripka returns to the Players to lead this engaging journey of a son's gift to his mother, to himself, and to the audience. A theatre experience-a life experience-to never forget. The New Hampshire premiere of the show that "...highlights the irrepressible resilience of the human spirit and the capacity to find delight in the everyday." - Time Out (London)

Fresh off an acclaimed run this summer at the Chester Theatre that saw the production win Berkshire Theatre Awards for BEST SOLO PERFORMANCE (Joel Ripka) and OUTSTANDING NEW PLAY, Every Brilliant Thing will take over the Players stage on Hadley Road for what will undoubtedly be a heartwarming and engaging show.

Every Brilliant Thing stars Joel Ripka (The Last Train to Nibroc). Directed by Daniel Elihu Kramer. Rated PG-13.
