Such a rewarding way to spend an hour! My wife said she felt immediately "energized and uplifted" by hearing Bill share his truth. Passionate, funny, sometimes sad, but always entertaining. ... full review

In the stage performance of “The Brick,” Bill Berry brings a lot more than top notch songwriting to the table. I was unprepared for the depth of the story that unfolded.

Bill went someplace very unexpected with this show - and he nailed it! His particular talent for storytelling songs dovetailed with the spoken narrrative. Not once did my mind wander. I heard singalongs, too - and at one point the audience broke out into spontaneous (and appropriate) clapping on 2 & 4.... full review
