Gearheart Auditorium

1 Bert Combs Dr

Prestonsburg, KY

You're seven years old. Your mom's in the hospital. Your dad says she's "done something stupid." How do you respond? You start by making a list of every brilliant thing in the universe to live for, starting with 1. Ice cream... As you grow, the list grows. But will the list be enough when life becomes harder than you ever imagined?

Join us for this one-man show exploring life, family, grief, and the particular joys that bring us hope. Recommended for ages 12+.

"A heart-wrenching, hilarious play... One of the funniest plays you’ll ever see about depression—and possibly one of the funniest plays you’ll ever see, full stop.” - The Guardian

"Filled to the brim with joy...beautiful, heart-wrenching and very funny." - Time Out London

Each performance will be followed by a free audience Q&A with the actor.
