Every Brilliant Thing Critic Reviews

"And something more is happening here, too. Radcliffe makes himself extraordinarily available to us his fondness for the audience radiates outward from wherever he is onstage. When participants make tiny errors (say, Mrs. Patterson's joke is a dud), he laughs with unguarded delight. - The New York Times

"Yet launching a conversation around mental health with an audience magnet as powerful as Radcliffe is on balance an excellent thing. And Radcliffe's compassionate portrayal of a survivor recognizing that he's not out of the woods just because he made it into adulthood is one of those things that makes a theater lover just a little more appreciative of the humanity at the center of this art form." - Los Angeles Times

"Broadway performances, despite their sensational acting and writing, often follow a certain set of conventions. However, "Every Brilliant Thing" shatters the format, making it a true breath of fresh air. The difficult topics of depression and suicide are referenced throughout the show's script. Yet the show is a reminder that amid all the challenges and heartache that life throws at us, there is always something to look forward to, even if it's just for a little while." - Variety

"Every Brilliant Thing is unsparing and clear-eyed in its presentation of the realities of depression and suicide, yet glows with a hopeful, life-affirming aura that convincingly depicts the value of struggle, and the beauty in tenacity." - Deadline

"It seems almost incongruous to talk about what a great time you will have watching a play centered around depression and suicide, but what Every Brilliant Thing does is create almost a communal support group filled with constant reminders of the things that make life worth living. And with Radcliffe as our guide, this show definitely makes the list." - Entertainment Weekly

"Over the course of the evening, Radcliffe turns the Hudson Theatre into a kind of temporary community, inviting the audience to contribute their own reminders of life's small pleasures. The result is a modest but affecting theatrical experience that finds unexpected power in the simple act of paying attention to what makes life worth living. - amNY

" How can we not root for Radcliffe as he delivers a tour de force, serotonin-boosting performance that's as powerful as any drug currently on the market? Every Brilliant Thing is the funniest, most life-affirming show about suicide. It provided so much uplift that I didn't even mind being called "old." - Culture Sauce

"Radcliffe, who has demonstrated increasing power as an actor since his inescapable cinema origins, is so perfect in the roleand so suited to the playthat a spectator might think Every Brilliant Thing built for and molded upon him." - New York Stage Review

"Daniel Radcliffe is also a witty, energetic and generous host, a cool hand at comedy (as we saw in "Franklin Shepard INC") and something more. When his character says things like: "If you got all the way through life without ever being heart crushingly depressed, you probably haven't been paying attention," the pain he communicates makes it clear that he's been paying attention." - New York Theater

"It's Radcliffe's vitalizing and vulnerable performance, a cardio workout both physically and emotionally, that's the reason to go. He's its most brilliant thing." - The New York Post

"Thanks in no small part to the radiant emotional authenticity Mr. Radcliffe brings to the role, the narrative of the protagonist's life maintains our interest as he matures and himself begins to suffer from a persistent melancholy." - The Wall Street Journal
