The Playhouse will again participate in Give to Lincoln Day!

Give to Lincoln Day, coordinated by Lincoln Community Foundation, is a time when everyone in Lincoln is asked to make a donation toward the organizations that are critical to the care, support, and spirit of our great city. Last year, Give to Lincoln Day raised nearly $8 million for local nonprofits, a record-breaking amount. LCP Friends alone donated $32,415 to keep the Playhouse going strong.

TICKETS

Tickets available soon!

You’re six years old. Mum’s in hospital. Dad says she’s “done something stupid.” She finds it hard to be happy. So you start to make a list of everything that’s brilliant about the world. Everything that’s worth living for. 1. Ice cream. 2. Kung Fu movies. 3. Burning things. 4. Laughing so hard you shoot milk out your nose. 5. Construction cranes. 6. Me. Soon the list takes on a life of its own in this funny and very human play.

Every Brilliant Thing is a life-affirming play that celebrates life while addressing issues like depression, suicide, and the importance of human connection.
