Tony Award-winner and Harry Potter star Daniel Radcliffe is returning to The Main Stem in 2026 for a limited engagement in Duncan Macmillan and Jonny Donahoe’s “Every Brilliant Thing.”
The production, which first made its West End debut and ran Off-Broadway, will arrive at Broadway’s Hudson Theatre for a 13-week limited engagement starting on February 21, 2026. An opening night is slated for March 12, with performances running through May 24.
“Every Brilliant Thing” delves into the story of a nameless protagonist who faces a distant father, a suicidal mother, and their own deep sadness. They end up countering these obstacles by chronicling every brilliant thing in the world — anything from cheering up their depressed mother to simple pleasures like “ice cream” and “the color yellow.”
This marks Radcliffe’s return to the stage; he previously appeared in “Merrily We Roll Along.”
“Every Brilliant Thing tackles some serious subject matter, but the overall experience is one of joy and celebration,” Macmillan said in a statement. “Every performance is unique and unpredictable and it requires virtuosic skill from its central performer.
“When Daniel told us how much he loved the play, I couldn’t have been more thrilled. He has the intelligence, quick-wit and charm to roll with the spontaneous moments that the show invites—he can be a clown one moment, then grab you by the heartstrings the next. He has huge depth and humanity. I can’t wait to get started.”
Presale tickets will begin on November 13 with registration via the production’s official website. General ticket sales begin on November 14.
