Belvoir brings to the stage Tiny Beautiful Things, a life-affirming play based on Cheryl Strayed's bestselling book, adapted by Academy Award-nominee Nia Vardalos, best known for starring in and writing in My Big Fat Greek Wedding.
Tiny Beautiful Things explores the complexities of life through the lens of Cheryl Strayed's online advice columnist persona, Sugar.
In the chaos of home, Sugar receives emails from strangers needing help navigating the contradictions of life. Sugar replies with candour, offering her own tough, sweet brand of unadulterated advice which offers healing – and maybe even a few little revolutions. What would you tell someone who is unsure about role-playing as a sexy Santa? Or wants their parents to stop putting each other down? Or the father who feels as dead as his lost son?
