The reason I found Riff dueting on "Science Fiction" off-putting was because this production messed with the script to accommodate it, not because I'm opposed to the idea. I also found combining the narrator, Eddie and Dr. Scott into one role off-putting for the same reason. And both of these changes are just unnecessary; they add nothing, really. These changes don't highlight some formerly unseen layer to a character or anything. They're just changes for the sake of being changes.

For those who've gone already, is it better to wait for the cast in the lobby or at the stage door proper?

Stage door. I've actually never seen actors coming out through the lobby. But if you wait outside, there's an area where you can see both the lobby exit and the stage door exit clearly, so you won't miss anyone.

Is there a chance that they used Riff for Science Fiction because Ms. Cody couldn't handle the song? The revival initially used Columbia as the second verse usherette.

My first time at Buck's County playhouse and absolutely loved this show! Full disclosure, I only know Rocky Horror from the movie, and really don't quite get the enthusiasm for the musical (in movie form or otherwise) but I really enjoyed this!

I don't know that I can offer much in the way of substance (would be happy to ask specific questions), but I found the overall production very representative of the movie and incredibly engaging! Nick was a perfect (PERFECT) Rocky, and Nick and Lauren wonderful as Brad and Janet. I imagine Hunter Foster's production was pretty standard fare for the piece...but for a novice like me, it was delightfully fun!

I keep hearing about an Off Bway transfer for this specific production and quite honestly, it deserves it. I don't know if I have ever seen a better production of Rocky Horror in my life and this production seemed to capture all the comedy AND heart. Anyone know anything about this? I will be first in line for tickets.

I concur, this production must be available to the masses. The show is an absolute pleasure. To point out the flaws of the show would be a sin.

I think a production transfer for this production could happen. Jerry Mitchell asked Nick Adams if he was done with Rocky on Twitter and Nick responded with "for now :)". Time will tell!
