Every Brilliant Thing Reviews

This is opening tonight at Barrow Street Theater. I predict rave reviews.

Mine begins:
"Every Brilliant Thing,” a funny, fun and moving show about a boy who begins writing a list of “everything worth living for” to cheer up his suicidal mother, comes from Great Britain, where “brilliant” is used the way Americans say cool or awesome. As it turns out, though, “Every Brilliant Thing” is brilliant in the American sense too."

I was able to catch a performance of this last weekend. It was delightful, and quite moving.

I think Brantley's review from last month is spot-on.

It is often on TDF these days. Don't miss...
