HIGHLY ACCLAIMED EDINBURGH FRINGE SHOW HEADS TO D&G

The brilliant Paines Plough theatre group kicks off a packed September programme of events as DG Arts Live continues to deliver its new touring programme of quality performing arts to audiences across the region.

Coming to the region straight from the Edinburgh Fringe, Paines Plough bring their highly acclaimed production of Every Brilliant Thing: a touching and life-affirming play about depression and the lengths we will go to for those we love.

“A piece that demonstrates why life is worth living… you’ll leave feeling elated” and “possibly one of the funniest plays you’ll ever see” will be performed at the Theatre Royal, Dumfries, on Monday, 5 September.

Produced by Duncan MacMillan, it stars the “phenomenally engaging” Jonny Donahoe as the son who makes a big list of brilliant reasons why his depressed mother should not commit suicide. The production receives outstanding praise wherever it appears and has left a trail of tears of both joy and sorrow across the globe. The performance begins at 7.30pm.
