A one-man + audience show
"This one-man show was excellent. To present themes of depression and suicide in a kind, compassionate, serious, sometimes funny, always human way takes skill from both writers and the performer. Daniel Radcliffe's performance should be in the list of brilliant things. "

A Brilliant Show!
"While the subject matter was very weighty, I felt the writing dealt with it in a very compassionate way. The levity and energy that Daniel Radcliffe brought to the performance helped us in the audience understand that everyone deals with grief differently and there’s no right way. It was a show I’d recommend to almost anyone. There’s a lot to be learned. "

Wonderful show
"Loved the acting, the interaction with the audience, and the storyline. Handled a sensitive subject well. Only negative: Some of the audience speakers were not understandable. They spoke too quickly, didn’t enunciate or were too quiet to hear clearly. "

Painfully Beautiful
"Daniel was a brilliant thing in Every Brilliant Thing. Had me in tears throughout along with sprinkles of laughter, joy and sorrow. I don't think it could have been a better performance. He made sure everything that should happen to you during a performance happened. Brought back memories, made me think deeper and feel things I hadn't allowed for a long time. It was very moving and I would recommend seeing this performance. It is a reminder of lifes impacts and the people in it. Daniel effortlessly interacted with so many in attendance and truly made you feel special if he had the opportunity. It was beautiful and I hope that in those moments I may need to, I will look back and remember every brilliant thing. "

Phenomenal
"Daniel was super energetic, friendly, and so inviting through out. The story itself was so touching even though it dealt with darker themes. To be able to mix humor and the downs of life was refreshing; and the audience participation was the best part. It was also amazing and beautiful to be surrounded by other people who appreciated the story telling and supported each other if they were chosen to participate. "

One of the best things I've ever seen on Broadway!
"This was a well written, thought-provoking play with an audience participation element that was charming. Daniel Radcliffe should get another Tony for this. His exuberance, dramatic and comedic skills and flawless timing are second to none. I strongly urge everyone to go see this show!!"

I just loved every brilliant thing
"Daniel made a heartwarming performance in every brilliant thing. It was amazing how he took audience to be part of the play in a most convenient and enjoyable way. I came with my son from Finland to see what the all the fuss around Broadway is and boy oh boy we were stunned of the theater piece and Daniel how he delivered it. "

Daniel Radcliffe is Brilliant
"This show knocked me off my feet. From moment one. Not only is it a well written play, but Daniel’s quick thinking and adlib skills kept it all going even when an audience participant got nervous or read their part wrong. He just kept rolling and encouraging in a calm way. Nothing felt like a mistake… it was all part of an amazing show. You will have all the feelings, you’ll laugh and need tissues. I wish I could go again. "

Touching retelling of childhood trauma
"The play was very well written and Ratcliffe is a very charming actor who makes it look effortless. The smallest nit -- not really a one man play with the audience participation, but that's a technically. Would highly recommend."

A Truly Brilliant Thing
"This show was a beautifully tragic, sincere commentary on the fragility of the human condition. I laughed, danced, bawled, and walked away feeling significantly impacted. Daniel is wonderful and kind, and the wide range of emotion he managed to convey in a small span of time was impressive. This show is also heavily reliant on audience participation, which made it FUN!!!! 🫶🏻✨ One million & 1: this show. "

Soulful and Thoughtful Play, Great Performance
"Right before I went to the theater last night, I received news that a colleague (and friend) had died. The cause of death, while not directly related to the subject matter of this play, likely pertains to mental health. Sitting in the theater, watching this play that literally shines a light on "every brilliant thing" in the world and in life, I was moved and all the more saddened. Theater does this - it can do this and it should do this. This play reminds you that life is a gift and considers, to a lesser extent, how people forget this. Another gift: Daniel Radcliffe. He was wonderful. "
