As his mother battles chronic depression, a child creates a list of every thing they can think of that makes life worth living. As the child grows, so does the list. Looking back on a life of ups and downs, the man takes the audience on an inspiring journey that celebrates finding joy in the mundane and being grateful for the simple pleasures hiding all around us.<\/p>\n
At once intimate and interactive, this touching, funny, and uplifting play (originally seen at the Junction earlier this year) chronicles life\u2019s small joys and reveals the lengths to which we will go for those we love. The Guardian called it \u201cone of the funniest plays you\u2019ll ever see about depression \u2013 and possibly one of the funniest plays you\u2019ll ever see, full stop\u201d. Written by the English playwright\/director Duncan Macmillan with actor\/writer\/comedian Johnny Donahoe, it sold out at three consecutive Edinburgh Festivals.<\/p>\n
Here it\u2019s directed and performed by the Junction’s Gautam Goenka. He did the show 18 months ago at the Junction, and it was one of the best things in that season … Recommended.<\/p>\n
There are performances at 7.30pm on 3 and 4 November.<\/p>\n
