Every Brilliant Thing

Every Brilliant Thing
Horizon Theatre
through February 27, 2022

This is not your usual stage production, but it is a lot of fun. The play, by Duncan Macmillan is an audience-interactive production in which three different actors take the stage as solo performers on alternate nights.

O’Neil Delapenha, Magan Hayes and Shelby Hofer rotate through the dates, under the direction of Jeff Adler. Members of the audience are pre-selected by the actor to respond to many requests for comments, each answer having been provided to the audience member in writing.

The show is set on a stage by the sisters Curley-Clay it runs about 100 minutes without intermission. The show is a grown up recalling the days of his youth when he started to keep a diary of every brilliant thing he thought about, observed, or took part in; be it a good ice cream cone, the school dance, or some kind of problem. It kind of makes you think back to your days of old.

The story is woven together with great joy among the audience and everybody has a good time. The theatre is easy to get to in Little 5 Points, with free parking, nice goodies, and good views from all seats. Make sure to bring your CDC card and mask with you behave like a grown-up.
