Every Brilliant Thing

Written by Duncan Macmillan and performed by Jonny Donahoe, the play was first performed at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival in 2014. “The play’s conceit is simple. In response to his mother’s suicide attempt, a young boy makes a list of all the things worth living for – like water-fights, ice-cream and “things with stripes”. As he gets older the list keeps growing. The magic lies in the way the audience are invited to participate. They are assigned lines and even roles in the story. Almost everyone contributes and a community is created” (Guardian). 

Viola's Room

Directed by Felix Barrett and Hector Harkness, and narrated by Helena Bonham Carter, Viola's Room is an 'audio-driven' immersive theatre experience  written by Daisy Johnson.

Viola's Room follows the story of a girl named Viola,  and her story of grief, obsession and loss of innocence. The story is loosely based on Barry Pain's story, The Moon-Slave, which  was adapted by Johnson.
