I'm weary but I really hope this happens! Such an odd film but I think with the right fine-tuning would be perfect for the stage.

I think it'd work if they removed all vestiges of ROCKY HORROR. Just let it be its own bizarre thing.
Though I don't really think the material is strong enough to merit a stage adaptation.

This is terrific. I hope it's a success.
I've always thought the material for "Shock Treatment" was excellent and mostly suffers for not being anything like RHS. It's a really sharp satire -- and so relevant to today's TV-obsessed culture.
Any significant revisions will hopefully make it less muddled. The score is better written but not as iconic as Rocky- perhaps the whole thing will work now.
I love the music and the movie.
Patricia Quinn is just so much awesomeness.
They really should disconnect it from Rocky Horror.

Except now there can be an explicit Frank N Furter equivalent since that character wouldn't hinge on the availability of Tim Curry.
