Time Out New York

"Timely and provocative. John Lithgow is superb, fearsome – a master thespian."

Time Out New York

Adam Feldman

The New York Times

"I found Lithgow’s performance a fascinating study in monstrosity. I found myself engaged by the conversations I’ve had since seeing Giant: They are the necessary third act to this two-act play."

Helen Shaw

Variety

"A staggering, thought-provoking pleasure."

First Class Performances!
"The actors’ performances were extraordinary. Though we had great seats (1st row mezzanine), it took a few minutes at the start to be able to pick up Lithgow’s dialogue as he was looking down at this desk. I mention this not as a complaint but to encourage audience patience as the sound quality improved greatly within minutes. Overall, a terrific experience, though due to difficult, nuanced and sophisticated subject matter, I would not recommend for pre-teens. "

"The subject, while set in 1984, screams 2026. Riveting dialog and performances. Don't miss."

10000 stars! An extraordinary experience
"Just saw GIANT. Still can’t breathe properly. It is shattering. Lithgow is a giant! The most astonishing, powerful performance. I’ve seen him dozens of times. It’s this script. It’s searing. I’ll be processing for a long time. I think the script should be shared - it’s so compelling. The oldest hatred is the greatest understatement ever "

Riveting Spellbound Emotional Drained
"The entire cast of this show delivered beyond anyone’s expectations. It was almost as if they in fact war these historical characters. John Lithgow is one of the greatest actors I have ever seen on Broadway and I have been going to Broadway for over 40 years. The other actress in the show, each possess empathy, compassion, comedy, humanity, and a skill set that you don’t wanna miss!"

Giant is Giant of Broadway
"Do not miss this superb production. Giant is the best play I have seen in many years, maybe the best ever. The play is a nuanced examination of anti-Semitism in the life of a famed children's books author. John Lithgow gives the performance of a lifetime in the lead role. He will walk away with the Tony, no suspense in best actor category. All of the actors were outstandding, a great ensemble cast. While the subject is serious, there are moments of levity that lighten the drama. Giant is a don't miss production, especially with Lithgow in the lead."

Dahl rotten. Lithgow remarkable.
"The entire cast fires on all cylinders. John Lithgow is particularly hateful as Roald Dahl. It definitely made me wonder how such a despicable human could write such delightful stories for children. The two of us highly recommend this play if you can get tickets. "

Marybeth D from Hinsdale on May 29, 2026
John Lithgow is a national treasure.
"Everything about Giant was flawless. Except of course, the hideous truth of Roald Dahl‘s virulent antisemitism. Thanks to John Lithgow’s performance, the theater setting disappears and you’re right there in his living room being assaulted by the thoughtless, ignorant, vicious words he spews as if he’s in the right and Jews are foolish to think they are being persecuted. It’s a shocking and important play. "
