The funniest play about depression you’ll ever watch.

Don’t do it. Things get better. They might not always get brilliant. But they get better.

“Water fights, people falling over, Sunday roast at Nan’s, the smell of an old book.” Every hilarious, beautiful and brilliant thing, however big or small, that make life worth living.

This summer, the New Wolsey Theatre Young Company present Duncan Macmillan’s West-End and Broadway hit show, Every Brilliant Thing.

Please note that all performances will take place at The Gallery Studio, St George’s St, Ipswich, IP1 3NF.
