An uplifting play about depression that with warmth, humor and hits from 1987 to the present tackles difficult topics in a disarming, touching and funny way. With Ellenor Lindgren. A seven-year-old girl learns that her mother is in hospital because she no longer wants to live. To save her mother, the girl makes a list of everything worth living for:

  1. Glass
  2. Water War
  3. Stay up after bedtime and watch TV
  4. The color yellow
  5. Things with stripes
  6. Interpret with skis after snowmobile
  7. People who fall head over heels
  8. Super Mario

The list continues to grow. And so does the girl. We follow her from 1987 to the present, from child to adult, through school, love, work – and new things are added to the list: Dancing alone, coffee, thinking up a declaration of love. As the list fills up with positive things, she begins to realize the importance of the list in her own life. Maybe it's even the case that the one who is really saved from the list is herself?

Every brilliant thing is the original title of the play that in the hands of Västerbottensteatern becomes ALL THAT IS WORTH. And in this surprising monologue, the audience and the actor create the show together. The play is directed by Västerbottensteatern's new artistic director Johanna Salander and on stage we see Ellenor Lindgren.
