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.

Granted, I was very close to the stage, but it still felt like Herrin, Macmillan, and Radcliffe were able to envelop all 970 of us in this small, personal story. I can’t begin to imagine the logistics required to get each performance going, let alone the infinite hours of pre-production planning. But the result feels effortless, even while appreciating Radcliffe’s mammoth undertaking. It truly feels like we’re all at a party, celebrating life and all the little every day things that make it worth living. It’s a balm in a troubled time, at least for seventy minutes. As the character’s list wrapped up at the end of the night, I thought the real final number should be this production.
