Audience Comments on
"Rasputin" Showcase
A special presentation of "Rasputin" was performed on December 18, 1999 at The Grand Opera House in Wilmington, DE to a full house. The following are comments from those who attended.
"Rasputin was fantastic, incredible and gorgeous."
"The music is powerful, dramatic, enthralling and thrilling."
"...a phenomenon comparing to Superstar"
"Blood On Your Hands reminded me of Gethsemane."
"Rasputin was magnifique!"
"Mr. Rapp has created a masterpiece and the comparisons to the
great musical theater are well deserved."
"I want the CD today and the opening night to be tomorrow."
"Ted Neeley was Rasputin - and he made you forget he'd ever been anyone else."
"Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU for the opportunity to attend
this incredible musical."
"The song Father Gregory brought tears to my eyes."
"I wholeheartedly agree with your assessment of Michael Rapp -
I love this music."
"Excellent!! Music was outstanding!"
"I've been a subscriber to the Playhouse for 20 years - this deserves a road tour."
"It had depth, sorrow, happiness, romance and humor."
"Nasdrovia - a really rousing piece of music comparable to
something you might hear in Les Miz."
"It was great...Spectacular"
"Judging from the standing ovation, it is reasonable assumption that things could happen very quickly for Rasputin."
"I sincerely hope you can make it up to Toronto. I, for one, will be there and will advise everyone I know to purchase a ticket."
"Loved the music, loved the performances, especially Neeley's
Gethsemane- like-show-stopper "Blood On Your Hands", and
bill "With Every Drop" as the single!"
"Blood On Your Hands is one of those pieces of theater that will
be etched in the memory."
"I have seen every musical that is currently on Broadway and has been on Broadway over the last 15 years. I can honestly say
that if "Rasputin" was currently on Broadway,
it would be the hands-down winner
of the best musical Tony award."
