When struggling writer Cheryl Strayed (Wild) unexpectedly takes on the role of an anonymous advice columnist, she never expects the journey that follows. Through humor, compassion, and raw honesty, she connects with letter-writers facing life’s biggest questions—offering wisdom, empathy, and sometimes, just the right words at the right time. Adapted by Nia Vardalos (My Big Fat Greek Wedding) from Strayed’s bestselling book, Tiny Beautiful Things is a deeply moving and unexpectedly uplifting play about resilience, hope, and the beautiful mess of being human.
