100,000 BRILLIANT THINGS ABOUT BEING ALIVE.
1: Ice cream, 2: water fights, 3: staying up past your bedtime and being allowed to watch TV... As a mother battles chronic depression, a child creates a list of everything that makes life worth living. As time passes and the list grows, what began as a naive attempt to deal with tragedy becomes an epic chronicle of life's small joys.
Intimately staged and featuring an engrossing and interactive performance from one of this country's most dynamic performers. This touching, funny and intimate solo piece charts the lengths we will go for those we love.
Audience Advisories: This performance contains difficult subject matter and mature themes, including talk of suicide, pet euthanasia, and clinical depression. Restricted to ages 6+. Due to the intimate nature of this performance and venue, WCT does not allow babes-in-arms to attend this performance.
