"Complementing [Robin] Williams'
fast-and-furious comedy assault was the more laid-back style of the Raspyni Brothers who
opened the show. Although billed as a juggling act and despite the fact that they actually
do juggle almost the entire time they are on stage, the Raspyni Brothers were a comedy
duo. And a delightfully surprising one at that."
- Ft. Lauderdale Sun"A juggling team whose breathtaking stunts, dry wit, and yeoman-like
work ethic made them a sure fire opening act, has made the jump to headliner status.
Judging from a recent performance, the Raspyni Brothers deserve the promotion."

"The audience was warmed up for
[Howie] Mandel by a well-oiled comedy/juggling machine called The Raspyni Brothers. Like
Mandel, the brothers didn't take themselves seriously and used audience participation
well. They combined elements of stand-up with some truly amazing juggling feats.
