  3. Every Brilliant Thing


Boston-Area Premiere! Featuring Adrianne Krstansky. 1. Ice cream 2. Water fights 3. Staying up past your bedtime and being allowed to watch TV. These are just a few items on the list of things worth living for, compiled by a young girl trying to ease her mother's depression. As the girl grows older and the list grows longer, she learns the deep significance the list has on her own life. Described as "possibly one of the funniest plays you will ever see (The Guardian)," EVERY BRILLIANT THING is a charming and moving new work about the irrespressible resilience inside all of us.
