Don’t Miss Every Brilliant Thing at the ARTfactory – A Play About Hope, Humor, and the Beauty of Life

Looking for a powerful and unforgettable theatre experience? Join Actors Theatre at the ARTfactory for Every Brilliant Thing by Duncan Macmillan. This heart-wrenching yet hilarious play follows a child who creates a list of every brilliant thing worth living for—like ice cream, staying up late, and water fights—in an effort to understand their mother’s struggles. As they grow into adulthood, the list becomes a poignant reminder of hope, human connection, and the beauty of everyday life.

This one-person performance by David Johnson promises to leave you laughing, crying, and reflecting long after the curtain falls. Catch it at the Wind River Theatre at the ARTfactory:

  • Friday, February 28 at 7:30 p.m.
  • Saturday, March 1 at 7:30 p.m.
  • Sunday, March 2 at 2:00 p.m.
