EVERY BRILLIANT THING

At once a transcendent coming-of-age tale and a call to reach out to each other, Every Brilliant Thing is a warm-hearted, hilarious, heart-wrenching play about how depression can affect a family, and the lengths we will go for those we love.
Come see a night of musical opposites attracting. This celebrates the power of contrast—between light and darkness, visible and invisible worlds, and the wildly different temperaments that make us human. From a Mexican composer’s spiritual journey through indigenous traditions to Beethoven’s dramatic battle between despair and triumph, to Nielsen’s literal exploration of human personality types, these works remind us that music thrives on tension, transformation, and the space between extremes.
