REVIEW: Arden’s Every Brilliant Thing is a Tour de Force for Scott Greer

Philly’s love affair with this superb actor has never been more heartfelt.

This gloriously intimate, profoundly moving production finally gets the show exactly right.

Director Alexander Burns’ sometimes imaginative rethinking cannot redeem Lionel Bart’s awful musical.

Singing doesn’t get better than this.

Ensemble coordination is this production’s greatest achievement, along with some fine individual contributions.

This glossy but glib production is enjoyable but adds little of substance to Ibsen’s original.

A mixed bag of a production, but some singing of significant promise.

The restaurant setting has a sense of authenticity; the action in it, not so much.

This frantic, antic production doesn’t illuminate Anne Washburn’s poignant satire.

Yet Kenneth Lonergan’s often powerful play seems oblivious to its own sense of privilege.
