About This Production
Laughter is the antidote to all things. When mom is depressed, a young child sets out to assemble a list of all the things that make life wonderful. From “ice cream” to “sunshine” to “laughing so hard milk shoots out your nose”. The list grows as the child progresses from adolescence to adulthood. Told in collaboration with the audience, this uplifting story explores resilience, and the lengths we will go for those we love.
One of the funniest plays you’ll ever see about depression—and possibly one of the funniest plays you’ll ever see, full stop
