ABOUT THE SHOW
“Theatres best antidote for depression” – The Guardian
What do you do when you’re just seven years old and mum finds it hard to be happy? Start writing down for her every brilliant thing worth living for—ice cream, water fights, rollercoasters—and then never stop. #315 The smell of old books. #994 Hairdressers who listen to what you want. #2000 Coffee. #9996 Sex. As time passes and the list grows, what began as a naive attempt to deal with tragedy becomes an epic chronicle of life’s small joys. This list takes on a life of its own in an unusually funny show about depression and love.
With warmth, humour, and an interactive twist, this poignant performance celebrates resilience, gratitude, and reminds us of the beauty hidden in everyday moments.
