Rocket Man
18 concerts
Handpicked by Elton John & David Furnish, it was Rus' own live tribute production 'The Rocket Man Show' which got him noticed. In the show, Rus recreates the magic & live persona of a young Elton like no other. Storming around the stage with a fun-loving sense of flamboyance; part diva, part soccer player, killer vocalist, fierce piano player, all rock & roller.
Rus painstakingly recreates a 1970s Elton concert with gorgeous, colorful, and flamboyant costumes worn by Elton, including his iconic boots, glasses, and jumpsuits from 1973, as well as a sparkly Swarovski tuxedo from 1984. With praise from critics, Elton fans, and celebrities alike - including Queen's Adam Lambert who described Rus' performance as phenomenal, and Meghan Trainor who declared you IS Elton! The Rocket Man Show has quickly joined the list of hottest and must-see shows in town.
