    You asked for it, and it’s back.

    Hosted beautifully by Steve Rodgers, the hit of 2019, about a boy’s list of things that make life worth living, builds hope and joy – with the audience’s help – every night.

    A warm, deeply-felt show that garnered awards and applause, Every Brilliant Thing returns for a limited season.

    Truth, done simply, is magic on the Belvoir stage, and if ever a show was true… if you missed it here’s your second chance. – Eamon Flack, Artistic Director
