Posted: 2/25/07 at 5:38pmi dont know if their ticket lines close early on Sundays or not because I tried calling earlier and didnt get an answer. Im also curious of the ticket price(s) since it doesnt seem to be listed on the site anywhere. Rocky Horror is one of my favs!

I've been meaning to post about this show. I did the show with Rachel Helson (That's me in the picture with her above) back in 2005 here in Louisville, KY. She played Janet and produced it for 2 years in a row here in Louisville, playing the part at age 16 and 17, and was amazing both times.
She's such a great person, performer, and a joy to work with and I have no doubt she's putting together a stellar show.
I just wish I had the money to come see it.

Posted: 2/25/07 at 7:07pmI am doing it right now. Next weekend is our last...so if anyone is in the Philadelphia area they should totally check it out. I think it is an exceptional production.

Tickets were $100 for the whole house with the exception of some of the Mezz, which was $50. Sorry I don't remember the specifics.
When I had purchased the tickets not many had been sold yet. I am going to be sitting in the front row center Orch. I was considering a little further back so I could see any audience participation, but really I'm going more for the show.
In any case, its for a great cause and looks like a ton of fun. Hope to see some of you there!

Okay, I won't. So, who's who in the cast? jk
Glad to see Kevin Cahoon as Frank! He was great when he played him in the recent revival. I saw him understudie for Terrence Mann.

More casting news!
The good:
Kate Reinders as Columbia
Michael Arden as Riff Raff
Which I am very excited about! They seem great for the roles!
However, the bad:
The producer has cast herself as Janet
(insert eyeroll)

Posted: 2/28/07 at 3:56pmPerhaps you did not see Reinders in her current Galinda stint. Bitch is crazy, but I see that manic nature fitting very well with the Columbia character.

Posted: 2/28/07 at 4:25pmMichael Arden as Riff Raff? Shouldn't HE be playing Janet?
#17re: Rocky Horror Tribute Show- 4/16
Posted: 2/28/07 at 4:48pmI love Arden. Now I wanna go even more.
#18re: Rocky Horror Tribute Show- 4/16

Now, don't get me wrong, I love Michael Arden... but really?
Cahoon and Reinders will be great.

Arden reminds me alot of Esparza. I guess we will see if he is able to suprise us and turn in as good a performance...
ETA: I'm loving that I broke this news before BroadwayWorld :p

I want to freakin' cry. There is no way I can see this, and Cahoon was my first Frank....wah.
Pity party over. I hope to see VERY detailed reports about it!

Posted: 2/28/07 at 6:13pmdirty rotten guy, was there a service charge along with the ticket price? I'm wondering because otherwise I'll just go to the box office and buy them in person.

Posted: 2/28/07 at 6:20pmArden as Riff is the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard of. Wrong sound, wrong look (although that can be fixed, I guess). But just... why bother?
