"I loved the audience participation, everyone was wonderful. This play brought out a range of emotion in me, plays usually don't do that. Daniel Radcliff was excellent and this is a production not to miss."

Great Performance
"Daniel Radcliffe put on a great performance. It's an intimate venue and really cool that he's able to run around before the performance to meet people and then engage the audience throughout the performance itself. Such a fun show!"

Amazing
"This Broadway play is truly amazing—an incredible and powerful experience. In an era when conversations about mental health are more important than ever, this production deeply resonates. It thoughtfully explores the importance of taking care of yourself and your loved ones, seeking the help you need, and breaking the stigma surrounding mental health. Daniel Radcliffe delivers a superb performance—captivating, heartfelt, and unforgettable."

So good!
"This was such an intimate and clever show. The topic is a little heavy, so I’m not sure how appropriate it is for children (we brought our 10 year old, but every kid is so different). Daniel did an excellent job drawing in the audience, literally and figuratively. I’m so glad we chose this show over others the night we went. "

So much more than a night at the theatre
"Tracee was simply amazing. Her warmth, humor, and incredible improvisation brought light into some very heavy moments without ever diminishing their meaning. She made the audience feel like we were part of the story—laughing together one minute and quietly reflecting the next.
the show is a reminder that even through some of life’s darkest moments, there are always brilliant things worth noticing, holding onto, and adding to the list."

Best show in years
"I go to the theater to feel, connect, laugh, cry, learn and to be inspired. Tracey Ellis Ross brought all of those things to her outstanding performance in Every Brilliant Thing.

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. "

"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! "
