Testimonial for Ashley Cooper

My name is Michael Rapposelli. I am a seasoned performer and a respected talent agent in South Florida. Being a graduate of Harvard University, I got to rub shoulders with the best and brightest of young America. Like Salieri from the movie “Mozart”, I can recognize genius unfortunately, I am no genius and cannot produce the requisite skills to join that Mensa group. That being said, a dear friend of mine introduced me to Ashley Cooper and his lovely and protective wife Carolina. When I gazed into the eyes of the tall, handsome Ashley, I was immediately disarmed by his kind eyes and gentle spirit. I knew in my “Salieri” mind, that this man was indeed special.

As quickly as possible I booked him at one of the country clubs in Boca and stayed to watch his show. The man was/is incredible. Not only does he have a clear, smooth voice but he has the stage presence of an old pro, bringing to mind Nat King Cole and Sammy Davis, Jr. I was drawn into his performance and was mesmerized. Who is this guy? Why isn’t he an international star?

As we spoke and got to know each other, I learned that he is a self-less man who spends most of his time as a missionary in Peru helping others. I wasn’t surprised. You can see in his eyes that he is a man chosen to uplift the masses with a deep sense of humility and gentleness. At least that’s what I thought until I saw the man dance. Genius: everything from tap to soft shoe to moves that would’ve made Michael Jackson jealous were he still alive.

A singer, a dancer, a story-teller, a missionary. In other words, Ashley is a man like few others: a real entertainer’s entertainer. He draws you and then lifts you up.

I am proud to call him a client and I am even happier to call him my friend!

Enjoy the show!
