Grigori Rasputin (1869–1916)

 

“Despite my terrible sins, I am a Christ in miniature”

 

Russian peasant. Self-proclaimed holy healer. Legendary lover. Orthodox. Coercive. Indomitable. Endowed.

​

“Oxana Panchenko is equally impressive as a supple, balletic Grigori Rasputin, ingenious in mixing stern expressions with outlandish movements. Any choreography that makes beard stroking visually arresting deserves praise”

The Stage
