Sri Lanka is set to host a tour of the internationally acclaimed play “Every Brilliant Thing,” organized by the Peterite Arts Foundation in collaboration with World Vision Lanka. The production, directed by Theruni Indrapala, features former Peterite member Mario de Soyza in the lead role.
The interactive solo performance, based on Duncan Macmillan and Jonny Donahoe's script, invites audiences to engage with its powerful message of hope and resilience. Starting on November 5th at the Kamatha Studio in Colombo, the show will run for four days, illuminating the narrative of a young boy who creates a list of reasons to live against his mother's depression.
Born from a simple monologue in 2006, the play has transcended cultural and linguistic boundaries, with performances in over 80 countries and 44 languages. Its ability to foster emotional intelligence and forge deep connections with audiences has earned it critical acclaim, including a Tony nomination for Daniel Radcliffe and a Broadway debut led by Radcliffe himself, alongside Mariska Hargitay and Tracee Ellis Ross.
