It truly is a “Brilliant” life that we get to live! Have you thought about it? What are the most brilliant things in your life, that make life worth living? Let’s make a list!
As a 7-year-old your list may have started like this….
#1 Ice-cream.
#2 Water fights.
#3 Staying up past your bedtime.
Those things may still top your list… mint chocolate chip ice cream is my preference!
Did you have a snowball fight with your kids or make a snow angel for the first time with your grandkids last month? Add that to the list too!
This week March 4th, 5th, 6th and 7th the Wallace will host performances of “Every Brilliant Thing” by Duncan Macmillan and will star Texas Tech University MFA Candidate, Christian Ruiz. This production is brought to you by some of the same team members from “The Woman in Black” last fall.
Every Brilliant Thing shines a hilarious and compassionate light on dark corners of the human condition. It is a play about depression, resilience, and the lengths we will go to for those we love -- and it enlists you, the audience, to tell this heartfelt story.
General admission tickets are $15 and student tickets are $10.
Because we so strongly believe in the importance of the message of this show and the incredible quality of the experience, we have added two more performances on March 26th and 27th.
Additionally, we are offering a discount to teachers and ministers (use code Teacher) and Health Care Professionals (use code Health!).
The story is enthralling. In observing just one rehearsal I found myself completely engaged, mesmerized by Chris’s performance. I also found the show to be therapeutic following the emotional roller coaster we have all experienced this past year. It was so wonderful to see a live performance!
To learn more about the show visit "Every Brilliant Thing" by Duncan Macmillan with Jonny Donahoe — The Wallace (wallacetheater.com). It is recommended for students high school and above as the content is for a more mature audience.
