Talk about exceptional casting! Besides the fact,...can you imagine the pressure of taking on this role with R.O. right there!? WOW! And he did brilliantly. What a superb performance. He, also, did the role justice, and then some.

His voice is a powerhouse. What a set of lungs on him.

One thing that caught me eye, towards the end, when they're taking bows,...you can see him smiling the biggest smile ever, and it in turn made me smile. As the cast was introduced, you could see in all of them how very much fun they all had in making this. I just happened to notice his huge happy grin at the end. A well deserved big smile for a big job well done!

I admit, I got a lot of pleasure from this production by watching the cast and seeing that they all (well, except for "Janet") seemed to have such a kick out of this performance.

I want to give huge kudos and props to Kristian for a terrific job well done!!

Could not agree more. He was amazing (but then he has played the role quite a bit).

We went to see the show live the day after it was recorded and he looked TOTALLY in awe of R O'B when they did the bows at the end. Not that I blame him in the slightest!
