Critical Response

 

“Broadway’s Telly Leung is fabulous as gleeful, caustic Ryuk, the demonic Shinigami with a weakness for apples.”
— Alun Hood, WhatsOnStage
“Ryuk, beautifully costumed by Sachiko Nakahara in black leather and exposed bones, stays deliciously aloof.”
— Kate Maltby, The Times
“Telly Leung brilliantly embodies the apple-loving demon Ryuk, who descends to hang with the ‘boring’ mortals mostly so he can snaffle the apples he craves. His every movement piques interest and his comic timing is excellent; such proficiency at scene-stealing suggests the police may be hunting the wrong criminal.”
— Franco Milazzo, Plays International
“Leung all but steals the show as gloriously gothic, camp Ryuk, wringing the biggest laughs of the night.”
— Sonny Waheed, The Reviews Hub London
“Telly Leung is excellent fun as the playfully evil Ryuk.”
— Caitlin Devlin, Ticketmaster Discover
“Leung stole large chunks of the show on such stage-filling numbers as “What’s New Pussycat” and “Raindrops Keep Fallin’ On My Head.”
— Steve Feeney, Portland Press Herald
