Event Details

Written by Duncan Macmillan with Jonny Donahoe


Directed by Neil Brogan-Brown


You’re seven years old. Mum’s in hospital. Dad says she’s ‘done something stupid’. She finds it hard to be happy.


So you make a list of everything that’s brilliant about the world. Everything worth living for.


Ice cream.


Water fights.


Staying up past your bedtime and being allowed to watch TV.


The colour yellow.


Rollercoasters.


People falling over.


As the child becomes an adult and the list grows, they learn the significance it has on their own life. This comic play has become a global phenomenon exploring the lengths we go to for those we love.
