Great show!
"I wasn’t sure what the show would be like but I thoroughly enjoyed it. Mariska Haugerty was fabulous! You felt sad, happy, laughed, contemplative but engaged 100% of the time. "

Mariska Hargitay delivers a stellar performance in her characterization.
"Mariska Hargitay delivered a stellar performance. I am a devoted fan of hers, I loved seeing her rise to the challenge in this role on Broadway. It helps you to understand that through grief, and turmoil in one’s life, there are several “Brilliant” things that we encounter through life, and remain to be grateful for! I would have liked her to have more audience interaction with people toward the back orchestra. I was there due to my admiration of Mariska but, unfortunately, could only swing the $200 seats. Only those who paid $300 - $500 a seat were able to interact. No matter what price you paid, we were all there because we are fans of Ms. Hargitay and would have loved the opportunity."

She is my idol
"Mariska came out into the audience twice before the show actually started! Once to greet someone who was obviously her friend and another time to go over who in the audience was going to participate in the show. I was overwhelmed with emotion to see her in person. She is funny and charismatic as well as very beautiful. It was a thrill to see her Broadway debut. I enjoyed the show immensely. "

I couldn't hear
"From what I saw, and heard, I thought it seemed like a good show. Unfortunately, due to the combination of the beginnings of hearing problems and the fact that Daniel Radcliffe didn't project his voice and didn't use a microphone (except a brief sequence) I did not hear more than 25 or 30 % of the show and my seat was on the stage. I should have heard more than I did. The previous night I saw a different play and the actors projected much better. Due to the nature of Every Brilliant Thing I would have loved to hear all of it. "

Group Therapy
"This was the most amazing group activity I've ever been too. All Broadway plays should do audience participation. Daniel Radcliffe was Brillant, kind and geniune. 5 random audience members were selected to assist him and I would beive it if you told me they were planted. They were that good! Especially the woman who played the libraian! "

Wonderful play except for one thing
"Mariska Hargitay was wonderful in this role. She had a great connection with the audience. She was able to mix talking about upsetting feelings and happy feelings and, for the most part, in an uplifting way. My only criticism was not hearing many of the things said by people in the audience. I spoke with a few others who felt the same way. "

One of the Brilliant Things!
"I booked the ticket specifically to see Mariska Hargitay. I was a little weary of the concept of the "audience participation" but it was so well done! Mariska was absolute stunning and amazing. It's defeinitely a show I'd see again and again (I'd watch her a dozen times!) but I think the experience will be slightly different (and brilliant in its own way) depending on the star. Highly recommend!"

Reminder to find positivity in life
"Story line is very good and relevant to the times we live in. Do not recommend for those with hearing loss. I was seated in the balcony and am deaf in 1 ear struggling to hear much of the content. I anticipated sound to be louder thinking I didn't need to ask for accommodations in advance. Not sure if there are any. "

Daniel shines!
"Daniel Radcliffe radiates warmth and enthusiasm in this play but, unfortunately, though we had great seats (Row K center orchestra), we could barely hear most of the lines read by the audience, which are extensive. Took a poll of our row at the end of the show and people of all ages agreed they had missed at least 1/3 - 1/2 of the audience participation. Between the sound not being loud enough, people talking too fast or not articulating well we felt we missed a good deal of the play."
