Second Draft Production: 9-11 January 2020, Platform Islington | Originally performed as The Best Day Ever! (a play about the end of the world), April 2019, Pleasance Theatre.
This is a time capsule.
It is an attempt to capture who we are.
We’re making it so we can be remembered exactly as we are right now.
Because right now might be the best it ever gets.
A group of teenagers try to preserve who they are right now, a few years before the end of the world.
EVERYTHING is a work in progress created by 17 teenagers aged 14-18 and the directors of Company Three's five-star Brainstorm (Park Theatre, National Theatre and BBC iPlayer).
We are creating this play through a series of draft productions. Previously performed as The Best Day Ever! at the Pleasance Theatre in April 2019, EVERYTHING explores who we are, how we’re connected and how we might save ourselves for an uncertain future

Audience Feedback
Absolutely adored seeing Everything by @company_three @nedglasier tonight with @EmmaLReeder. As a young person who makes theatre, it hit me so hard, I cried . We need to listen to young people, support our work, our talent, our voices! Huge respect and applause to @company_three

If you work with young people if you don't work with young people if you know a young person if you have SPOTTED one in the urban jungle then go and watch @company_three's most recent show 'Everything'. So fresh, so insightful, so playful and perceptive. What an awesome bunch.
