Run Time: 70 minutes without an intermission

About the Play

• A surprise hit at the 2014 Edinburgh Fringe Festival followed by a four month Off-Broadway run, the play has become an international sensation with productions in at least 63 countries. 
• The performance is told in gentle collaboration with the audience. The participatory moments are all conducted very generously—you are in safe hands—and in an incredibly narratively fulfilling way. 
• North Shore resident and Broadway performer Jessie Fisher (Once, Harry Potter and the Cursed Child, A Beautiful Noise) makes her WT debut. Director Kimberly Senior, who helmed past favorites Marjorie Prime and The Diary of Anne Frank, returns for her 7th production at WT.
• The production contains descriptions of depression and suicide. The topics are handled with care, and the story is one of resilience and hope.
• Resources on mental health support and suicide prevention can be found in the Digital Program and are available in the lobby post-show.

Your Visit 

• Seating in The Gillian Theatre for Every Brilliant Thing will be General Admission. You will not have an assigned seat. There will be a variety of seating options to choose from when you arrive: traditional theatre seats, sofas and armchairs, patio/lawn chairs, and cabaret table seating. 
• Subscribers will be given priority access to the theatre and can begin entering 30 minutes before show time. All other ticket buyers can begin accessing the theatre 15 minutes before show time. 
• We encourage you to arrive early and spend time in the rejuvenated Gillian Theatre. A bar will be inside the theatre space for pre-show beverages, there will be records playing and the performer will be there to greet you when you arrive. 

Please note that late seating and re-entry is at the discretion of house management and is not guaranteed.
