The strongest proof of the brilliance of Rapture, Blister, Burn is its dramatic visceral effect on its audience. The entire audience held its breath when Catherine and Don kissed, and when the lights winked out, every single person in the house exhaled in unison, a collective “oof” that I could physically feel. Those moments of deep palpable connectedness came back again and again…There is very little that can demonstrate so powerfully that Bates’ production of Rapture, Blister, Burn was a resounding success. The cast and crew of Bates’ production deserves a deafening standing ovation.
