Bartek Kraszewski in Ride the Cyclone

Musical Theatre
Actor

REVIEWS

“There’s gangsta rap and Eastern European folk paired with some seriously impressive Cossack breakdance moves from bolshy Ukrainian adoptee Mischa (Bartek Kraszewski).”
★★★★ EVENING STANDARD

“A standout of this production is Bartek Kraszewski, who makes an impressive professional debut as charismatic Ukrainian SoundCloud rapper Mischa Bachinski. His performance is electric and demonstrates why he is one to watch.”
★★★★ WEST END BEST FRIEND

“Bartek Kraszewski is hilarious (and jaw-droppingly athletic) as the Ukrainian bad boy with a penchant for auto-tuned gangsta rap and alcohol.”
★★★★★  WHATSONSTAGE

“The Ukrainian bad boy Mischa (Bartek Kraszewski, one of several young performers making an arresting debut) sings an AutoTuned anthem to “self-aggrandising commercialised hip-hop” before somehow segueing into a romantic folk song.”
★★★★ THE TIMES

“Bartek Kraszewski brings swagger and surprising tenderness to Mischa, whose rap-infused number is both ridiculous and oddly moving. But it’s the character’s second number, where Mischa softens while singing about his ‘internet fiance’, Talia which is surprisingly tender; and Kraszewski finds vulnerability without losing any of the hard won stereotype swagger.”
★★★★ THEATREWEEKLY

“Bartek Kraszewski shows real range as Mischa Bachinski, with a stunning ‘Talia’.”
★★★★ ALL THAT DAZZLES

“Mischa (Bartek Kraszewski), the rage-filled rapper with a surprisingly tender underbelly.”
★★★★ TIME OUT

We are delighted for Bartek Kraszewski who will be making his professional debut in one of the most hotly-anticipated musicals, Ride the Cyclone, at Southwark Playhouse Elephant.

Bartek graduated from the BA(Hons.) Musical Theatre course at Mountivew earlier this year and is thrilled to have booked his first job so soon after graduating.

Lizzie Gee will direct Ride the Cyclone in its European premiere and Bartek will play Mischa Bachinski. Ride the Cyclone has music, lyrics and book by Jacob Richmond and Brooke Maxwell. It is the second instalment in Richmond’s “Uranium Teen Scream Trilogy.”

Ride the Cyclone is presented by Kevin McCollum, Morris Berchard and Jack Maple. Casting was by the wonderful Harry Blumenau Casting.
