Every Brilliant Thing
1. Ice cream. 2. Kung Fu movies. 3. Burning things. 4. Laughing so hard you shoot milk out your nose. Every Brilliant Thing invites audiences into the world of a son’s handwritten list of simple joys, crafted with love and humor to uplift a struggling mother. Embark on this transcendent coming-of-age journey, with its unique blend of heart-wrenching moments and laugh-out-loud comedy. Every Brilliant Thing stands out as one of the most engaging and relatable plays of this century, capturing the essence of what it means to navigate life’s challenges with humor and grace. EVERY BRILLIANT THING was first produced by Paines Plough and Pentabus Theatre, on 28 June 2013 at Ludlow Fringe Festival. The play had its North American premiere at Barrow Street Theatre, New York, on 6 December 2014, where it was presented by Barrow Street Theatre and Jean Doumanian Productions.

Reviews for Every Brilliant Thing
Every Brilliant Thing
Cape Rep Theatre
Literally being part of the show helps you connect deeply with it. It really is more than a play; it's an experience. This lovely theater in the woods always thinks outside the box, and just when you think you’ve seen all a theater can do they surprise you with something new.

Cape Rep Theatre
Cape Rep’s newly renovated barn provides open spaces, intimate spaces, and most of all flexible spaces; it’s easy to see why the organization has put so much effort into its restoration. Director Julie Allen Hamilton, lighting designer Susan Nicolson, sound designer Maura Hanlon, and costume designer Robin McLaughlin have created, in concert with Wheeler himself, an absolute jewel of an inaugural play. It’s hard to imagine a more perfect experience.
