"DIRECTOR ANDREW RASMUSSEN DID SOMETHING BRILLIANT. WE'RE TALKING ABOUT AN IN-YOUR-FACE, INCHES AWAY, PRACTICALLY PERFORMING ON YOUR LAP PRODUCTION!"

RENT // THE LAB THEATER // CARDINAL THEATRICALS
DIRECTOR + PRODUCER + DESIGNER
In the expansive 8,000 square-foot LAB warehouse in Minneapolis, I was privileged to work with an extraordinary lineup of rock artists, including Boricua rapper MARIA ISA, Grammy Award Winner JAMECIA BENNETT, r&b artist MARGEAUX DAVIS, American Idol Top 5 PARIS BENNETT, and indie frontman HARLEY WOOD, together to push the boundaries of immersive storytelling. The result was a "ONE-OF-A-KIND EXPERIENCE" (CBS) where the audience became an integral part of the action. Surrounded by a jungle of scaffolding and ladders, the actors effortlessly swung, slid, and transformed the performance space into a playground of movement and exploration.
"RASMUSSEN FINDS THE HEART OF THE THING, WHICH IS NO SMALL ACCOMPLISHMENT. WE LEAVE THE THEATER FEELING THE RHYTHMS OF A PURPOSEFUL, INSISTENT HEARTBEAT.”
ST. PAUL PIONEER PRESS
"NEVER HAVE I EXPERIENCED A PERFORMANCE QUITE LIKE THIS. IT WAS TRULY A ONE-OF-A-KIND EXPERIENCE."
