EVERY BRILLIANT THING is the heart-filled story of one individual's relationship to mental health. While the play deals with themes of depression and suicide, it tells its story with humour and heart, combining familiar theatrical storytelling with immersive audience involvement. The result? An entertaining, funny and life-affirming journey that audience and performer create together.Directed by Luke Brown (Ordinary Days, Marys Wedding), Stephanie Hope Lawlor (Venus in Fur, Marys Wedding) plays a woman whose family history of mental illness affects her every move, from the age of 7 into adulthood. To cope, she diligently begins making a list of EVERY BRILLIANT THING, from ice cream to Beyonce's genealogy, and everything in between. Soon, the list takes on a life of its own, reminding us to appreciate the little joys our lives have to offer.Because of the nature of the show, the Hamilton branch of the Canadian Mental Health Association has made resources available to audiences, including two talkbacks with a CMHA representative and cast during the run of the show. [A] heart-wrenching, hilarious playOne of the funniest plays youll ever see about depressionand possibly one of the funniest plays youll ever see, full stopThere is something tough being confronted herethe guilt of not being able to make those we love happyand it is explored with unflinching honesty.The Guardian (UK)DETAILSWHENSat.
