You’re seven years old. Mum's in hospital. She finds it hard to be happy.

So, you start to make a list of everything that’s brilliant about the world.
1. Ice cream
2. Water fights
3. Staying up past your bedtime

And as you grow, so does the list...

Every Brilliant Thing is an honest, uplifting and very funny play about resilience, love and the lengths we go to for the people who matter most. Told by a single performer and brought to life with the help of the audience, this is a theatrical experience like no other. Whilst the story remains the same, participants will experience their own unique version of the show based on what they put into it.

Following its acclaimed run in Keswick, Theatre by the Lake brings this powerful production to venues across Northern England, creating shared moments of laughter, reflection and connection in the heart of local communities. Each performance is different and each audience shapes the story.
Come and be part of it.
