"Every Brilliant Thing" presented by Circle Theatre


EVERY BRILLIANT THING
play program

The current play on stage at the Circle Theatre in downtown Fort Worth, is "Every Brilliant Thing".   It was written by Duncan MacMillan and Jonny Donahoe.  


Duncan MacMillan
playwright






Plot is as follows from the Circle Theater website:

Jonny Donahoe
Original Cast, Playwright































1. Ice cream 

2. Water fights 

3. Staying up past your bedtime 

4. Laughing so hard you shoot milk out of your nose. 

Making sense of the world is often too complicated. Sometimes making a list of Every Brilliant Thing allows us to simplify our existence. Written by Duncan Macmillan with Jonny Donahoe, this theatrical experience engages the audience with laughter as the list grows longer and longer. This story reminds us to forgive often, love always, and ponder: what is on our list? 
ZAK REYNOLDS
actor
One actor, Zak Reynolds, performs the entire play which lasts for just  over an hour.  Audience members also become part of the play, as when he shouts out a number, such as 995, the audience member who has that number then shouts out the answer which in this case was "bubble wrap". (yes Dear Readers, that was my number!)

As to the question asked above what would you add to your list?

Here are few suggestions from the ones play goers left behind!
