Every Brilliant Thing is a play written by Duncan Macmillan in the 2010s that told the story of a heartfelt journey through a mother’s suicidal depression and its repercussions on her family.

Highly innovative, it has seen great success on stages in the UK and around the world. 

The play was translated into Arabic and adapted by Ahmed El-Attar, who also worked on the mise-en-scene. It also features Syrian actor Nanda Mohamed as the protagonist of the monodrama.
