Rocky Horror season is coming...

Are you gearing up for your local community, college or professional Rocky Horror event?

I wanted to compare what one Rocky experience is like to another, since I've only been involved with mine for seven years now.

I have a question
I've been going to Theater shows all my life and I know that it is NOT acceptable to yell out things during live shows.
I was wondering since Its Rocky Horror and people yell things at the movie if It would be acceptable to yell things during the stage show? I would think not as much but like IDK where to draw the line?

Thanks
Sorry if this is a totally un-acceptable question

Yep
They have a cast that acts out the movie as well
It's SOOO much fun

ok thanks

taylor, are we gonna do RHPS? We had discussed it at one point
Though i do disagree about the live vs. film. If you get a good cast, the callbacks are even better live than film. I miss the Broadway revival They had some great reactions and interactions.

*gasp* get thee to a moviehouse! I've been participating in Rocky Horror shadowcasts for two years now (but I've been going to the show for over five years), it's awesome.

I *wish* there were Rocky Horror events near me.

I would give my left arm to have seen the Broadway revival. Daphne Rubin-Vega and Raul Esparza in the same show would be enough for me to die happy.

Aw, this makes me miss my production from this summer... playing Columbia was one of the most enjoyable experiences of my life (especially when we had an incredibly talented and incredibly attractive Australian actor playing Frank'N'Furter). That's what my avatar is from, its me during my Time Warp solo. I cried for so long when the show was over!

Gosh, I would have killed to see the 2000 cast: Alice Ripley, Raul Esparza, Daphne Rubin Vega, Joan Jett all in the same show... I'd die! Except I was 5 in 2000, not quite appropriate.

Leia, I'm with you! The 2000 revival was the first Broadway show I ever saw more than once. Everyone was great in it (with one glaring exception that I won't mention by name so I don't get hunted down with torches and pitchforks...). Was at the first Sat night preview, and made Dick Cavett lose it (though I doubt it was hard to do that early in the run). When he said, "It's true, there were dark storm clouds" and my friend and I yelled out, "Describe Oprah Winfrey's breasts", he stopped, looked down at us, looked back as his crib cards, realized there was nothing he could do, put his head in his hands and continued on with his line, "Heavy, black and pendulous."

Crappy film making? That movie is GENIUS.

Joe and TheatreFan, you are both right...the movie is genius...but trying watching it without the audience...I yawned after the first five minutes, and it didn't egt much better later...

This is a debate that's as old as the movie itself. I think on its own, it IS a decent movie that's fairly faithful to its origins.

Going to a midnight showing over an hour away from me on Halloween. WOOT! WOOT!
