It’s a feat of endurance and strength to run the 26.2 mile marathon on its own - but then to go do a show? As a principal? Twice?! It doesn’t matter if somebody’s done it before or if he’s only onstage for five minutes- it’s a huge accomplishment. Why neg it?

There have been quite a number of contradictory rumors about casting flying around this production for months.
Stacking the cast with A-listers for this show seems extremely unlikely- even getting one A-lister seems very unlikely now that the plum role has been cast. These aren't at all prestige roles and it's a (comparatively) lower-paying contract with a company with a tight budget.

It's a small opera company in a small venue. Everything else they're offering this season is only running a couple of days.

Girl, it’s Rocky ****ing Horror. It’s been around for 50 years. Audience participation is what has kept it around. A production that does not accommodate callouts is a failed production, because they are going to happen. That is how fans of the show know how to experience the show, becau

Audience participation is the Rocky Horror experience, full stop. It happens at every level of production, from community theatre to Broadway.

Sam Pinkleton has been sharing a lot of Studio 54 imagery alongside the casting and presale news on his IG story. Not sure if that’s him being cute because of the venue or an indication that he is using the venue’s storied past as inspiration for the production.

I found it really strange we never see Ace learn that Beau was gay and have to grapple with that. It’s implied his mom told him at some point, but it’s never made clear and never depicted.

I saw this recently and thought the show itself is fine. The plot is a little been-here, seen-this, an angsty teenage coming-out with bullying, self-harm, family drama, and self-acceptance. The most interesting aspect- Matt Rodin's gay teen character connecting with his estranged grandfather who is himself a closeted gay man- is strangely under-explored. We get glimpses of Beau's past in a few short scenes- a hookup turned unrequited love, his wife leaving with his daughter-

Out of curiosity, what was the last real scoop SO had? I know he's beaten a few announcements by a day or two, but I mean something along the lines of what's rumored here- big projects that are weeks if not months away from public knowledge.
