A bittersweet ode to the little things

Theatre | Every Brilliant Thing Nov. 27 to Dec 16, Berkeley Street Theatre

When a woman slips into a suicidal depression and ends up in the hospital, her sevenyear-old son compiles a list of things that make life worth living. You’d expect Every Brilliant Thing to be heartwrenching and tear-inducing, but it’s also one of the funniest dramas ever written. Originally a one-man show starring British comedian Jonny Donahoe, the Toronto production will feature Canadian favourite Kristen Thomson.
