The play explores themes of depression, hope, and resilience through the perspective of a child who begins compiling a list of everything worth living for, including everyday moments and small joys. As the list expands, the story follows a journey of connection, survival, and emotional growth. The production is designed as an interactive experience, with the performer engaging directly with the audience, resulting in a different performance each night.

Performances will take place on Friday, May 29, 2026 at 7 p.m.; Saturday, May 30, 2026 at 2 p.m. and 7 p.m.; and Sunday, May 31, 2026 at 2 p.m. at Beaver Street Theatre, located at 11 S. Beaver St. #2 in Flagstaff, Arizona.

All performances will be offered on a pay-what-you-wish basis. Audience members can reserve tickets in advance online at Flagstaff Shakespeare Festival. At checkout, patrons may select a $0 ticket option and optionally add a donation, or they may bring cash or a check to the theatre.

EVERY BRILLIANT THING is presented by arrangement with Concord Theatricals on behalf of Dramatists Play Service.
