"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. "

So many brilliant things
"This show made me feel all warm and fuzzy inside; so many brilliant things to appreciate. And a fun interactive form of theatre without it making anyone feel uneasy."

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! "

Radcliffe showing his act
"You came to watch Daniel perform. You get a great performance from him. He interacts with the audience quite a bit and he really shows off his acting skills. Highly recommend watching this if you get a chance. "

Very Good
"I thought Daniel Radcliffe was excellent. The experience was good. I think I read too much about it beforehand and it did not entirely live up to my expectations. I recommend coming in cold if that’s possible."

Stick with it
"It feels artificial to start but once he gets going you soon get engaged and tears may follow. He is a good story teller."

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."

Not excited
"Didn't really connect with this. Didn't hold my interest. Sort of bored despite the involvement of the audience and the energy of the lead character. "

Every brilliant sticky note
"I was disappointed in the sound. Really couldn't get into the story.
Not my cup of tea. We wanted to go because of the reviews, but obviously the reviews were overboard."
