BLACK SWAN STATE THEATRE COMPANY OF WA PRESENTS EVERY BRILLIANT THING
BY DUNCAN MACMILLAN WITH JONNY DONAHOE
Performed in-the-round, by the incredible Luke Hewitt, Every Brilliant Thing is an hour of life-affirming humour. This multiple award-winning international sensation throws audience members into the story as fathers, lovers, friends and allies following one person’s life in the shadow of mental illness.
From the broad #4 ‘The Colour Yellow’ to the detailed #9998 ‘Watching someone watch your favourite film’, this joyous and intimate work shows us the miracles in life’s minutiae.
ONE OF THE FUNNIEST PLAYS YOU’LL EVER SEE ABOUT DEPRESSION – AND POSSIBLY ONE OF THE FUNNIEST PLAYS YOU’LL EVER SEE, FULL STOP
- THE GUARDIAN
