Laughed, cried, related
"Every Brilliant Thing was a totally new experience for me as I usually only go to the theater to see musicals. When I found out Mariska was starring in a one woman show, I didn’t even look up the story line. Just immediately got tickets. Well, let me tell you, it was everything I hoped for and more. The theater was perfect. Not a bad seat in the house! Mariska performed the story beautifully. I found myself laughing out loud, crying quietly all while relating to the character and her struggles. A much needed story to be told, especially today, about mental health and the impact it has on those who suffer with it as well as those around them. An all around moving experience! "

A Truly Brilliant Thing
"A moving story that captures the challenges of living with someone struggling with mental health and the determination to show them exactly what’s worth living for. This brilliant, unique one-person show cleverly intertwines the audience with the story being told, making it easier to address the intense foundational issues of suicide awareness, prevention, and understanding the infinite ripples suicide and mental health have on the lives of loved ones."
