Every Brilliant Thing 
Written by Duncan MacMillan with Jonny Donahoe

June 24–July 30

“The funniest play you will ever see about depression.”
—The Guardian

Mom’s in the hospital. She’s “done something stupid.” So, you start a list of everything that’s brilliant and worth living for. 1. Ice cream 2. Water fights 3. Staying up past your bedtime. You leave it on her pillow, hoping, and you add to the list throughout your life. This one man, funny and moving play is a tribute to resilience and hope—as it enlists you, the audience, to tell this heartfelt story. Every Brilliant Thing shines a hilarious and compassionate light on dark corners of the human condition.

*This play, while a comedy, does address the topic of suicide. HSRT has not placed an age limit on this production. However, we do want our audiences to be aware of the subject matter.

The Importance Of Being Earnest
Written by Oscar WildE

July 15–July 24

The Importance of Being Earnest is the most renowned of Oscar Wilde’s comedies, known for it's rapid-fire wit and eccentric characters. It’s the story of two bachelors, John ‘Jack’ Worthing and Algernon ‘Algy’ Moncrieff, who create alter egos named Ernest to escape their tiresome lives.They attempt to win the hearts of two women who, conveniently, claim to only love men called Ernest. The pair struggle to keep up with their own stories and become tangled in a tale of deception, disguise and misadventure. The elaborate plot ridicules Victorian sensibilities with some of the best loved, and indeed bizarre, characters to be found on the modern stage.

Children Of A Lesser God
