Every Brilliant Thing

Many Hats Theatre is proud to present Every Brilliant Thing by Duncan Macmillan with Jonny Donahoe, in a one-of-a-kind solo show, that will undoubtedly be one the most unique productions to date.

In this solo performance, Vance Potter will lead you through a powerful and uplifting look at one person’s attempt to document all the wonderful, beautiful, and indeed brilliant things, big, small and everything in between that makes life worth living.

The tale begins with a young boy trying to help his mother see how and why life is worth living and progresses throughout his own life.

While this production deals with deeply vulnerable topics of mental health, the play is celebrated for being heartwarming, humorous, and ultimately uplifting. It emphasizes the importance of community, communication and human connection.

Performed in over 80 countries, including a stint on Broadway, starring Daniel Radcliffe, this highly interactive show involves a great deal of audience participation of which Radcliffe said “The only thing required is kindness. It’s kindness that powers the play” and the New York Times said “everybody who left that theatre left in a state of joy”.

One Actor. One Audience. One million reasons.

Come and experience the joy!

This is a one person play and will run 85 minutes with no intermission.

Please note: This show contains adult themes that deal with mental health.
