"...there's a surprising amount of heart in 'Twihard,' thanks in no small part to this music. Songs like 'The Lion and the Lamb' ... soar in a way you'd expect from a Broadway musical number. Rasmussen bounces between Broadway Ballads, tap numbers and spoken word/rap effortlessly..."
- Jerald Pierce, Chicago Tribune
What People Are Saying
"A zany and eclectic soundtrack by Tiffany Keane Schaefer and Brian Rasmussen meets a zany and eclectic cast in this hilarious generation-specific parody….For die hard fans, Twihard! a Twilight Musical parody is a knockout comedy with dazzling, Energetic performances and boisterous music.”
— Anthony Neri, Third Coast Review
“Twihard! at otherworld Theatre is a side-splitting, Fang-tastic romp that hilariously reimagines the iconic “Twilight” saga with catchy tunes, uproarious humor, and an unforgettable twist.”
— Gourmet Rambler, Your Chicago Guide
"Under Rasmussen’s musical direction, the cast of Twihard really goes, well, hard. Their musicianship is beyond noteworthy, and performers like Rachel Arianna (Bella) even get into operatic stylings. If you’ve ever wondered what would happen if Edward and James got into a tap-dancing battle, you’re in luck."
— Amanda Finn, Chicago Reader
“Shaefer and Rasmussen’s work here sparkles, and otherworld’s production is Flawless”
— Karen Topham, Chicago on Stage
