- These comments are not mine (mostly) but of some of the readers of
- alt.cult-movies.rocky-horror
-
-
- The Loft Cinema - Tucson, AZ
- Sat, Midnight, $4.50
- Comments: Huge theater, big screen, new film. Audience mostly high
- school and college students. Some cast members have an awful sense of
- timing. Virgins are married before sacrificed. (We have morals... NOT
- :)
- Comments: RHPS has reopened and will play only the 1st and 3rd week
- every month, until further notice. Price remained at $4.50 rather
- than the $5 we were expecting. They still didn't solve any of the
- shit that went on, but it's gone away for now (teenage drinking,
- grumpy management, lack of publicity)
-
- Art Theatre - Long Beach, CA
- 2025 E. 4th Street at Cherry Ave.
- (310) 438-5435
- Sat. show $6.00
- Comments: The cast here is VERY good. Their props & costumes are some
- of the best anywere. A custon-built stage, trannies and a full prop,
- technical, lighting and security crews. The show is very fun but if
- you get sick of it their are always cool people in the forier to hang
- out with. This is a very modifyed version of the old "Sat. Balboa"
- cast. (only a handful of the Balboa people are still left...) You
- can throw almost everything. Thay even let you use lighters! A word
- of advice if you go... Don't join cast if you like your sanity... Good
- show but... Thay also have a very nice "uncut", Super Heros print! All
- in all this is truly a cast worth seeing...
-
- Nuart - Los Angeles, CA
- Comments: Took over about 8 years ago when the Tiffany closed its
- long-time Los Angeles run. Cast of Sins of the Flesh has gone through
- many changes over the years, but the big fixture is Dennis Miller (not
- the TV Dennis, the Rocky Dennis) who stands out front of the theatre
- and collects fan club memberships every weekend. Dennis is an
- original, who used to (and occasionally still does) play Riff. (He is
- noted in Creatures of the Night, Sal's book). The BEST virgin
- sacrifices on the West Coast (sorry Berkeley :-) The ultimate virgin
- sacrifice: two rows of virgins, guys in one aisle and girls in the
- other, with their legs spread while a selected guy and girl virgin had
- to crawl on their backs all the way up the aisle and then come back to
- the front of the theatre on their stomachs, between the legs of the
- other virgins (opposite sexes, of course :-) Nuart played
- Rock-bye-Bear (by Fred Quimby) for a long long time until it broke.
- Several other cartoons have been aired over the years, plus the
- ultimate rock-video, The Wall, as trailers (why do they call them
- trailers when they come at the BEGINNING of the show? :-)
-
- Rialto - So. Pasadena, CA
- Sat, Midnight, runs about 8 months per year
- Comments: This place is in the National Registry of Historical
- Landmarks. It is one of the few remaining original vaudville
- theatres, complete with orchestra pit, bizarre pseudo-Egyptian decore,
- and gaudy paint. The balcony is usually closed. You might recognize
- it, because it has been used in _many_ motion pictures. I recall at
- least Kentucky Fried Movie being filmed there. It has been several
- years since I saw Rocky Horror there, but they still line up every
- Saturday.
- Comments: "The Player" is the best known most recent film which takes
- place at the Rialto.
-
- UC Berkeley - Berkeley, CA
- Sat, Midnight, $6.00
- Cast Name: Indecent Exposure
- Comments: It's about 5 blocks below UCB. The cast is excellent and it
- is considered the best cast in the country (so say the fan club in
- NY). We have official virgin hunters outside the theater before the
- show. The virgins are marked with "V" or "Fuck Me" in lipstick on
- their faces so that they can be easily identified by those with rice
- and other projectiles. We also have Super Heroes in the uncut version
- of the film. We also show shorts or music videos before the main
- feature. Sometimes the cast isn't there, but we have a good time
- anyway. About four times a year we have lengerie night complete with
- a competition for the best outfit. Other goofy things are known to
- happen, like last night when the entire cast was dressed as Star Trek
- characters who had been forced to play out the roles of RH. Our next
- lengerie night is tentatively scheduled for early July.
- Comments: Berkeley has been running the longest of them all..
- Comments: Call Becky Milanio at (510) 236-5491 for more info.
- (The Indecent Exposure Entertainment line)
-
- Camera One - San Jose, CA
- Sat, Midnight
- Phone: 408-294-3800
- Comments: Camera One's cast is Velvet Darkness, and no matter what the
- Berkeley cast says, Sal Piro designated VD the "best cast in the
- country" for 1993. VD started playing at Fremont's UA which is now a
- foreign language theatre (no, they don't show a subtitled version of
- RHPS :-) many years ago and switched to the Camera One in early 1993.
- They recently celebrated their first anniversary at Camera One. There
- is a weekly virgin sacrifice in which one virgin is forced to strip
- and don a wedding dress and then is placed in the opening wedding
- photograph scene with the cast. Excellent cast, costumes and props
- (full lighting equipment, a castle, a casket, red and blue sheets, a
- candelabra, etc., etc.) Audience props are only minimally supervised.
- Best line heard first at Camera One: "..called the human race (that's
- why your phone bill is so high!)"
-
- Montclair GCC - Montclair, CA
- Monta Vista exit off the 10 fwy.
- Turn north, 1 blk, turn right in to the mall.
- - Their are 2 theatres in the mall...
- you want the one next to 31 flavors.
- Fri./Sat. Show $5.00 or $3.50 if you have a "Fan Club" card!
- Cast: The Rebel Cast Alliance
- Comments: Friday night: This is a fun theatre! The cast is Ok. But the
- aud. is great. (VERY friendly :) It's the way Rocky used to be...:)
- Just a bunch of friends, having a good time. ...I like it. -Zenin
- (aka Byron)
- Comments: Although the movie is shown here on both Friday and Saturday
- night, the Friday night casts have always done inexplicably better
- than the Saturday night casts along the lines of performance, props,
- costumes and audience patronage. The RCA currently has a complete --
- yet small -- cast, with several of it's members pulling multiple
- duties: 1. Performing (average); 2. Lighting (minimal, but adequate);
- 3. Props (few, but effective where used); 4. Phantom gags (several
- that receive good audience responce). Some cast members have
- experience; most were just pulled out of the audience at one time or
- another and eventually joined the cast. No throwing in AP props/items
- or using squir guns and lighters. Clean, uncut print that includes
- "Superheroes." Crowds here rank among the best for audience
- participation. A fun place to visit.
-
- Canyon Theatre - San Dimas, CA
- Fri. show $3.00? ...it keeps changing.
- Comments: Not bad for a new cast. Good cast, good tech, nice people.
- All in all a rather good show. :) ...but I still want to know what
- that cat piss smell was in some of the side seats? ...just keep to the
- center section and you'll be fine. :) -Zenin (aka Byron)
-
- Belmont Cinema - Belmont, CA
- Admission: $6.00
-
- Bloor Cinema - Toronto, CAN
- Comments: Admission is $7 (slightly lower for members), and they
- apparently show RHPS every 2 weeks. The cast seemed to know each
- other well (and got even more familiar with each other on stage during
- the show). Projectiles and water are very much allowed. The cast was
- fun to watch since they did fun stuff on stage (like dressing up Brad
- as Elvis when I was there). Rocky was very scrawny.
-
- Mayfair Theatre - Ottawa, CAN
- Show RHPS two or three times a month
- Comments: The cast is called Orgasmic Rush, and they run a pretty fun
- show. Not big on props and stuff, but they do lines and the Time Warp
- really well. Columbia and Frank are excellent. They also really harp
- on the Criminologist's neck. Show costs $5 bucks for theatre membres,
- and slightly higher for everyone else, but the theatre lets you see
- two movies for one admission. No virgin sacrifices, though.
-
- Uptown - Toronto, CAN
- Price: $7-8 (Canadian)
- Comments: I think the cast was just starting out, the props and
- performances were both rather limited. Shows seem to be every other
- saturday night, price I racall as being about 7-8$, audience seemed to
- be mostly high school & university students.Nearly everyonr went as
- conventionists. Rocky looked a bit ?very waifish & wore a cassock
- instead if bandages, later a gold speedo. Narrator was rather
- annoying, led the audience in monty python singalongs instead of doing
- lines. No virgin sacrifice but their names were entered in a book.
- Audience was requested to throw props onto stage rather than at screen
- or cast, lighters and water were allowed (but my squirtgun
- leaked).Superheroes was included. They showed a Woody Woodpecker
- cartoon (R.I.P. Walter Lance) beforehand where at one point he dresses
- up as a mermaid , and someone yelled "Do't fuck ck with the Hair".
- 2Policemen were in attendance but quite friendly & posed with us for
- photos. It's a couple of blocks from the Victoria College campus you
- can look it up if you're in T.O. P.S. I'm not sure if the Bloor is
- still showing RHPS.
-
- Flatiron - Boulder, CO
- Every other week (?)
- Phone: 303-442-1944.
- Comments: The theater is at the corner of 13th Street and College, just
- one block from the CU-Boulder campus. It seems to show only every two
- weeks. The cast is called Deep Throat Nine, and they are a crazy
- bunch: they yell backa t the audience and throw things at them,
- including a two-quart pitcher of water in the water-cooler scene in
- Sweet Transvestite. Before the show are cast-lead cheers and songs and
- jokes. No Super Heroes. A lot less structure than the show at
- Berkeley CA.
- Comments: Rocky does play at the FlatIrons in Boulder, CO, everyother
- weekend, unless the manager decides he doesn't want a bunch of happy
- transvestites in his theater that weekend and says the projector or
- broken.
-
- Esquire - Denver, CO
- 6th and Downing street.
- addmission : $6.00
- time : 11:45 theatre lets in
- 12:00 virgin stuff and rules
- 12:15 Show starts
- Every saterday night
- Comments: Not the best show in the world, but has been improving
- steadily Only cast and crew is allowed on stage. Our theatre is dry
- and no open flames (flamming ok) allowed. all other props OK. we
- distribute "Official Certificates of Non-Virginity" to those recently
- popped. Audience participation scripts with OUR lines also available
- for the cost of copies. We have also been running a small spotlight
- for 6 months with limited success. Our film has superheros intact,
- high quality print (no glitches). try outs are held regulary for new
- players, If coming into town with some notice, drop me a line, we may
- be able to arrange something. our theatre seats 200, we have 25-75 on
- average. Contact: Leo Lionetti lionetti@beethoven.cs.colostate.edu
-
- Aggie Theater - Ft. Collins, CO
- Price: $4.00
- Comments: Rocky Horror has returned to the Aggie Theatre in Fort
- Collins Colorado. The theatre is located at 204 S. College. The show
- is organized by the Rocky Horror Society at Colorado State University.
- The show is $4.00. The cast The Rocky Whores is well rehearsed and
- features the best frank in the state. Preshow festivities include the
- S&M Man and "Let's fake an orgasm." Due to the addition of new seats
- to the theatre, it is a no fire or water allowed show. All other props
- are allowed, and flashlights are encouraged during "There's a Light."
- The show most recently played the weekend of April Fool's with great
- success. RHPS should return for Halloween and April Fool's from now on.
-
- York Square - New Haven, CT
- Fri & Sat, 11:30, $5.50
- Comments: Brand new print with Super Heroes.
-
- Chestnut Hill Cinema Cafe - Newark, DE
- Saturday night, 11:30pm, Admission $3.50
- Comments: Under 21 is not permitted into the theater (while this does
- kinda bite for those younger who wish to attend in this area, but for
- those of us "of age", it is REALLY cool... because the Theater is also
- a BAR! The owner had purchased this theater, ripped out every other
- row of seats, and replaced them with tables... mixed drinks are not
- served, but beer is readily available... $5 domestic pitchers & $6
- imported. Cast Comments : The cast is pretty good (at least I think
- so, since I play Brad Majors). We do a lot of our own personal joking
- around, but if you can't have fun with it, then why are you doing it?!
- We are still working on getting a "second cast" together, because
- sometimes our entire cast does not show, just so we can be sure that
- someone will be there every week for each role. However, the audience
- seems to have a lot of fun each week.
-
- Northlake 8 - Atlanta, GA
- Comments: If you are looking for a really professional cast, might I
- suggest the Northlake 8 in Atlanta. The cast really does a good job
- (and, I played Brad/Riff/Magenta there for a year prior to moving to
- Gainesville). The Northlake 8 is a great theater! For directions,
- just take I-75 to Northlake Drive and head east. You cannot miss the
- Mall, it is on the right side of Northlake Drive, and the AMC is near
- Toys-R-Us. Tell them Tom Servo sent ya! Ask for Kim McFarland, she
- is the area Rep of the Nat'l Fan Club, as well as a teriffic Frank!
- Comments: I've been preforming at the Northlake AMC 8 theatre in
- Atlanta GA for the last 4 years now, mostly as Brad Majors, but have
- played every part at least 2 times. We have a VERY good, and you could
- say a more 'professional' cast than most places (id assume). We
- preform every friday and Saturday night at approx 12:30 p.m. at the
- Northalke Festival AMC 8 theatre off of LaVista Rd near I-285 in
- Atlanta, GA. We welcome all types and persuasions, and are always
- looking for fresh flesh... erm.. new cast members. :>
- Comments: The cast at Northlake is cool. However, I would reccomed
- that you live in the Atlanta area to join. I live in Athens, and the
- commute got to me after a year.
-
- The Georgia Theater - Athens, GA
- Comments: It used to be a regular movie house but now it is a
- bar...which still occasionally shows movies. There is a big stage and
- the balcony is, so far as I've seen, always open. They put on RHPS
- once per academic quarter and I believe the admission is $2. A group
- of RHPS players just recently formed and performed for the first time
- at the winter quarter show. Because the theater is generally a club,
- there is a wet bar and smoking is allowed during the show. If you
- don't want to sit in the regular (well worn) seats, there are tables
- and standing room in the back by the bar. The management is very cool
- about all the stuff fans like to do and ask only that you do not touch
- the screen. The crowd tends to be almost exclusively college students,
- since Athens is a college town. It's a great time for $2.
-
- Hilltop Family Cinemas - Mableton, Ga.
- Comments: cost is $3 we are located on Bankhead Hwy 6 Miles outside the
- Atlanta perimeter on the west side of town (exit 8) the cast
- "nonoxinal-9" has been performing together for one year but we have
- people in attendance that have been doing this for as long as rocky
- has been around!!!!!!! we are also the cast that did the performance
- at the georgia theatre in athens last winter quarter and will be the
- recurring cast at that location next time that we hear about it.... we
- also help out at the bijou in knoxville tenn. we are a multi-state
- cast that get together about 6 times a year and halloween is the big
- get-together of the year...
-
- Henenway Theater - University of Hawaii Manoa campus, HI
- Saturday at midnight, $4.00
-
- Billy Joe's Pitcher Show - Des Moines, IA
- Friday and Saturdays.
- Comments: Most weekends, but every now and then shows the Crow or
- something else, so it pays to call. Usual admission is around $4.
-
- Varsity Theatre - Ames, IA
- Shown Halloween, the day before Halloween, and during our Spring
- Celebration, called Veishea. That usually the third week in April.
-
- Hollywood Bar & Filmworks - Indianapolis - IN
- Midnight every Saturday, 237 South Meridian, 3rd Floor
- Infoline: 321-9255
- Comments: Indianapolis's Satanic Mechanix, quickly becoming one of the
- biggest and best casts in the midwest, have moved along with Fox's
- relocation of the movie from the Greenbriar Twin Cinema to this great
- theater. Hollywood is one of the best theaters in the entire country:
- state of the art sound, a custom made screen, and a trendy bar
- atmosphere (it IS 21 and over only unfortunately). If that wasn't
- enough: here's the big news folks: the print is fresh from the Delux
- labs and it is the only one of its kind in the country. Furthermore,
- the entire atmostphere is completed with orginal 50s trailers of
- "Forbidden Planet" and one of the Triffid movies. Place this alongside
- the kick ass show of the Satanic Mechanix, and you have Rocky Horror
- history. Come and see it!
-
- Muncie Creative Opportunites Center - Muncie, IN
- Approximately every other Friday, bands at 7:30, show at Midnight
- 215 South Walnut Street. For info call 287-0946
- Comments: This is a _very_ cast oriented show that is put on by
- Indianapolis's Satanic Mechanix. The print of the movie is
- non-theatrical (16mm) and it plays on a rather small screen in the
- back as a very theatrical cast with full props plays on a full stage
- made especially for and taking advantage of the shape of the venue.
- The Muncie COC is a club and a artist co-op, and it has a very
- destinct and fun club atmosphere. If you want to see a RHPS show where
- the cast is _the_ show, check it out. The show is approximately
- bi-weekly, call the COC or keep an eye out on the Ball State campus
- for the next date.
-
- Harvard Square - Cambridge, MA
- Midnight on Fri and Sat, $6.75
- Comments: Across the street from Harvard.
- Comments: Cambridge,Mass' "Full Body Cast" puts on the RHPS with a real
- flair for perfection and, er, eagerness to please. With two full
- multi- talented companies, plus understudies, many of whom can play
- more than one role, and whose onstage appearances, costumes, and
- personas greatly resemble those of their characters, as well as full
- costumes, lights, props, and security tech crews, this exciting bunch
- has won popularity among Boston area audiences, and has earned many
- awards and much acclaim nationwide at RHPS conventions/competitions.
- The film itself is the original version (with "Super Heroes", and
- "Science Fiction - Reprise"), and has no breaks or skips. Viewers can
- exoect a great-looking performance and show, and maybe a few
- surprises, such as a special visit from "Animal", or "Barney", from
- Alex/655321, from a member of "the Clown family, or from Ed Norton or
- Phyllis Diller, or, if they're lucky, a gender-switched role or two,
- such as a male Columbia, a female Scotty, a male Trixie, or a
- Criminologist in drag!
- Show rituals include:
- 1.) Full musical pre-show, with one or two pre-rehearsed numbers,
- (e.g. "Y.M.C.A.", "Dude (Looks Like A Lady)", "Hot For Teacher") along
- with one or two RH faves (stage versions), usually "Time Warp", and
- either "Sweet T", "Dammit Janet", or "Hot Patootie", also
- pre-rehearsed. Numbers change monthly.
- 2.) Warm-up audience welcome/greeting speech; during which the whole
- house gets to warm up its wit and wisecracks, due to the "pun-tiful"
- words of either the (very!) Good Doctor or Commander Riff-Raff. Rules
- are laid out (LAID??) herein, that is: Rule #1 - "NO PUFTAS" (python),
- Rule #2 - No burning lighters, matches, flammable hairdos, etc (no
- "open flames") during "Frankenstein Place", and Rule #3 - No props! No
- tossing any rice, toast, etc, or using squirt guns (except tossing
- "off"/ using your "Love Gun" in the bathroom).
- 3.) One or two virgins get their symoblic "cherries" popped (by way of
- a nice big shiny red balloon between the legs), and as an extra treat,
- get to play Betty Hapschatt in the wedding scene. If two picked,
- either the "lame-ometer" is used to judge who needs it more, or if
- they're both dead fucks, one pops the other!

- Laurel Lakes Center - Laurel, MD
- Sat, Midnight, $6.75
- Comments: While the show is new, the cast is experienced (many from the
- now-closed Marley Station Mall cast), and very good. Management has
- agreed to keep it around as long as an it pulls a decent audience. If
- audience grows sufficiently, management will consider a lower price.
- Water and TP are not permitted, but the rest is cool.

- Towson Commons General Cinema - Towson, MD
- Address: 435 York Road
- Towson Maryland, 21204
- Phone: (410) 825-5233
- Directions: I95 to 695 towards Towson (not Essex) to Dulaney Valley Rd
- exit south. Stay on Dulaney Valley Rd as it changes names to York Rd
- (at Joppa) Theater is on the left at the corner of York Rd and
- Pennsylvania Ave.
- Comments: Our first night was April 8th. There were over 100 people
- that night. On our second night we had over 200 people! The theater
- manager is completly behind the cast. He let's the cast in for free,
- even though the ticket price is $1 for students and $2.50 for all
- others. He gives us time to do introductions, virgin hunts, and
- general info before the show. The theater holds about 300 people and
- has a changing area behind the screen. Our cast "Castle
- Transylvanians" performs Friday and Saturday. Our official opening
- show will be May 6. We are on a probationary period. That means that
- after the four weeks, the theater has a right to close.We don't think
- that will happen! The audiences are very enthused about Rocky comming
- back to Maryland!

- Uptown - Minneapolis, MN
- Sat, Midnight
- Comments: I saw the RHPS there many times growing up: The Uptown is a
- relatively small theatre with great atmo. Don't try to sneak in
- alcohol or too much rice, they frisk you at the door. Their motto:
- "Drink it before you get here." The cast is good, the crowd is odd,
- as usual, and the people are relatively friendly, if messed up.
- Comments: They have a fairly new print with "Superheroes" & "SFDF -
- reprise" at the end.
-
- Deville Cinema - Jackson, MS
- Comments: I was told that they haven't shown the movie regularly since
- the 15th anniversary. They only show it *very* occasionally, on
- "special occasions" (whatever THAT means), so anyone wanting to see
- the show there would be wise to call first and see if it's a "special
- occasion."
-
- Silver Screen - Biloxi, MS
- Fri & Sat, Midnight, $4.50
- Comments: As I said, they show it every Fri. and Sat. at 12:00. Entry
- is $4.50, but that includes pizza and beer (if you're of age.) Great
- theater, primo sound system, HUGE screen...all in all, a great place
- to see RHPS.

- Rialto - Raleigh, NC
- Friday, 11:30 pm
- The Wild and Untamed Players
- Comments: Rialto theatre is located at Five points on glenwood Ave in
- downtown Raleigh. This is one of the best Rocky shows around. I've
- been to shows in Pittsburgh-Dormont theatre, other NC shows, and even
- at Prince Charles theatre in London. This show is awesome because of
- its dynamic nature and its liberal management. All Rocky props are
- allowed including lighters and water throwing devices. Want to stand
- up and move around wherever you want, no problem, anything goes! This
- Rocky features an underwear run, wherin the audience strips and runs
- around after guess who Rocky! Cool Virgin ritual! Original lines!
- If you are a visitor from far away, ask someone for a place to stay
- for the night and go to the party after each show!
-
- Cinema 35 - Paramus, NJ
- Fri & Sat, Midnight, $5.00
- Comments: I used to be part of the Cinema 35 cast in Paramus NJ and I
- must say that they are by far one of the most professional casts I've
- ever seen. On occasion they don't put on a great performance but that
- is only because they are trying too hard and are forgetting the fun
- and spontinaety Rocky is supposed to bring. Many of their cast
- members have won prizes at conventions and a few even stared in
- conventions. The lines are always up to date and the film is perfect
- (no Super Heroes but that will change soon). The only rules that the
- theatre has is that you basically don't go over the edge and break
- laws in the theatre. There are no lighters allowed and no super
- soakers allowed either. An d the first five rows or so are for cast
- only. Except on Halloween when it is packed. Average crowds range
- from 100-200. $5.00 a ticket, Fridays and Saturdays.
-
- Harwan - Mt. Ephraim, NJ
- Saturday, midnight, $5.00
- Comments: One of the oldest casts in the country (15 years old), and
- the only cast in South Jersey and surrounding Philadelphia area. The
- Transducer Players are pictured on pages 120-121 of Sal's 15th
- anniversary book, as well as pictured on the back cover with the
- eastside cinema cast. (That was just after they lost the 8th street
- playhouse in the village.) Shows EVERY saturday night at midnight,
- admition is still only $5.00. The theater itself is a single screen,
- 600 seat vaudville theater complete with stage. An average show is
- 150-250 people. Virgin of the week every week. Theme nights and
- prizes all the time. Origonal pre-shows. Professional cast. Highest
- recomendations. Phone: 609-931-8869

- Comments: My name is Jeff Mach and I'm the director of the cast
- commonly known as Midnight Decadence, the Decadent Midnights, or The
- Decadent MidKnights In Their Scarlet Tights (a play on our school's
- colors and sports teams). We run the show at Rutgers University.
- We're fighting the administration, but we've managed to have some
- regular shows..Friday nights, so far, although we'll be doing some
- Saturdays to let Orthodox Jewish people come (no, really! Honest! My
- Janet here (her name's Nancy Martin, just thought I'd mention it
- because I'm babbling anyway) thinks the Orthodox Jewish thing is a
- joke, but it's not...[end digression] Anyway, we have a perfect 16mm
- film with Superheroes and a particularly..um...innovative show, even
- by Rocky standards..(we'll probably be posting soon on the net about
- our proposed de-virginization game, Full-Body Twister)...not that
- that's necessarily a good thing ;) ....um...well, if you have any

- Every Friday and Saturday night
- Comments: Rocky is still going in New York City at Movieland, on
- 8th St. (Just 1 block from the, now closed, 8th St. Playhouse). While
- the cast is constantly changing, there are a few regulars, including
- several people who date back to the Playhouse, and even the Waverly,
- before that. Rice isn't allowed, but lighters, and noisemakers are.
- In fact, they are sold by the cast for people who forgot to bring
- props.
-
- Cinema East - Nyack, NY
- Comments: I enjoyed this theater. went there twice. they have a pink
- panther short at the beginning, and (when i was there) a good cast.
- mostly the same lines as 8th street playhouse.
- Comments: This theater has been playing the RHPS on & off since it it
- came out! Collectively about 15 yrs. It's even in the RHPS Book!
- Cinema East had been a legend for a while, but now it is hopping once
- again! Early October '92, it had an audiance of 5 and no cast. On
- Halloween '92, there was a cast and an attendence of 316!! That cast
- (The "Inside Insanity" Cast) is still there over a year and a half
- later and is working like hell to regain Cinema East the rep. it once
- had! But it's hard, because people just don't seem as interested
- anymore.
- But if you are interested, It's a great place to see it! The
- theater is a 750 seat auditorium with with a stage and a GREAT
- atmosphere!! The cast is very friendly & enthusiastic and it's
- members are ages 14-25! They have a pre-show crowd booster and
- 'Virgin Sacrifices' before the show as well as a Pink Panther
- 'Inspector' cartoon which is also acted out on stage! Their costumes
- are great, including a Rocky costume that falls apart like the one in
- the movie! They also have a lot of props (i.e.-coffin, elevator, tank,
- juke box, weight set, etc.) and a whole Crim. set!!
- They encourage field trips, as for there have been a few to the
- theater already. Once three bus loads of people showed up for a show.
- Admision is $6.50 and when the cast can afford it, they
- make up 'Virgin Kits' full of props & goodies! They have a
- weekly newsletter called "The Insanity Insider" and are
- working on putting out a Fanzine!
- They enjoy theme nights and special shows every once in a while to
- keep it fun and interesting for the audiance as well as themselves!
- Their achievments are an audiance of 406 on Halloween '93, & 350 on
- a 'normal' night once! They have performed at Ramapo College (and
- look forward to performing there again) and also at Movie City in
- Edison, NJ. They look forward to possible shows at Drew University,
- St. Thomas Aquintas, and a possible production of "The Rocky Horror
- Show!" They can occasionally be found in local Nyack and Nanuet
- newspapers, and were once in "The Asbury Park Press!"
- If you want to see the show, the Theater's # is +1-914-358-
- 6631 for rec. or +1-914-358-6632 for directions.
- Any donations to the cast are very much apprieciated. Even scrap
- matieral or ideas and comments/criticizims are welcome! They are used
- to keep up our costumes and props and do fun things for the audiance!!
- DON'T LET NYACK DIE OUT AGAIN!!! SEE THE RHPS EVERY SAT. @
- MIDNITE!!"Stay Sane 'INSIDE INSANITY'"!!!!!! :*
-
- Jo-Mor's Stoneridge Theater - Rochester, NY
- Fri & Sat, midnight, $5.00
- Comments: I am a former member of the cast that performs here, "Sweet
- Temptations". When I left, the show had deteriorated to the point of
- being just not fun anymore--obnoxious management, random horsing
- around while in costume, etc. However, the cast finally saw the low
- attendance which resulted from this, and is now trying to get serious
- and rebuild itself. I'm always willing to give second chances when
- they're due...so go check 'em out, and give them some well-needed
- encouragement.
- Comments: I'm a current member of the cast. It's fairly open, and
- we're always trying to recruit new cast members. We enjoy good
- relations with management, the cast and regulars regularly hang out
- together (after the show, and otherwise), and we interact strongly
- with our audiences.
-
- Westcott Cinema - Syracuse, NY
- Midnight.
- Comment: The show was good and bad. First, the good. There is a cast
- but there was not enough people. So the cast asked for volunteers from
- the audience to do the parts. I almost went up but I decided that I
- wanted to watch how good they would be. The cast was OK but they had
- no set lines between all of them. The theater allowed us to bring
- anything we wanted except flames and glass. Why someone would bring
- glass is beyond me. Now the bad. The movie was HEINOUSLY edited. They
- chopped off a good 20 minutes from the film. One minute we are
- watching Rift let Janet and Brad in and the next minute we are in the
- middle of the Time Warp. This happened about 5 times.
- Comment: The theater is in the "Wescott Nation" on the East side of
- the city in close proximity to the SU campus.

- Graceland - Columbus, OH
- Fri & Sat, Midnight, $4.00
- (614) 888-3523
- Comments: The Rocky Horror Picture Show is playing at the Graceland
- Twin Cinema in Columbus, Ohio at the Graceland shopping Center off of
- High Street. It plays both Friday and Saturday nights at midnight (of
- course) with a live cast both nights (two members of which are writing
- this message). Price of admission is $4.00, though the cast does get
- in for free. If you have any questions, call the theatre at (614)
- 888-3523 and ask for Brian, Mae, or Wendy. If you have any virgins
- amongst you, ask for Brian, he'll take care of them. P.S. only rice is
- allowed for audience props! and no fucking rice at the cast!!!

- Clinton Street - Portland, OR
- Sat, $4.00 with cast, $3.50 without
- Comments: Shows run every Saterday night with the Caberiet performing
- about every other weekend. It has been showing RHPS for almost 17
- years which I believe makes it the longest running show in the US.
- Audience varies, tends to be louder on cast nights, but good. There
- are often theme nights, last night, for example was "Fuck with your
- character night" The one con is that you are considered a virgin if
- you have never seen RHPS at Clinton Street. Overall it's lots of fun.
-
- Lehigh - Allentown, PA
- Fri & Sat, Midnight, $5.50
- Comments: Name of the cast is "Sins of the Flesh" out of Bethlehem, PA.
- Excellent cast, all ages and skill levels. Has been known to perform
- RHPS at more than one location at the same night. (ie enuff talented
- cast for two complete performances.)
- Comments: All props are allowed except open flames and water. They
- have Superheroes.
-
- The Hollywood Theater - Pittsburgh, PA
- Sat, 10pm, $3.00
- Comments: They have a performance cast. They also show TWO Tim Curry
- Videos before Rocky starts, Paradice Garage and I do the Rock. They
- are the only place in the Pittsburgh area that has the current rights.
- You are allowed all standard props except WATER. we also have a brand
- new Print of it and it looks GREAT!
- Comments: Not only that, but it *does* contain the entire "Super
- Heroes"--only time in 10+ years of viewing in both SoCal and
- Pittsburgh I have ever seen that scene.
-
- Roxy - Philadelphia, PA
- Midnight, $5.50
- Comments: "The cast is compleatly crazy." They're good, but sometimes
- get carried away. The theater is small, but large enough to do a good
- show. You are not allowed to throw anything or have open flames
- either.
-
- State Theater - State College, PA
- Comments: I just saw the May Rocky listings and thought you might want
- to know about Vanilla Challice. We are State College's RHPS cast.
- The State theater (usually where we perform) currently doesn't have
- Rocky but if CinemaWorld (the owners of the State) believes in
- consistancy Rocky will be back to Central Pennsylvania in mid-October.
- The price of admission is roughly $6 and the theater is located on
- College Ave. (Rt. 26) in State College, PA.
- The cast is a motley crue of old actors and new virgins out for a
- good time. Warn the prudes though. One of our most popular Janets is
- male and we have two women who play Rocky him/her/itself. New people
- are welcome and travelling members of other casts frequently guest
- star. The show is (as always) at midnight Fridays and Saturdays. We
- expect it to start in mid-Octoberand last until (cross the fingers)
- late January.
- That's really it but in case you're wondering about our name. A
- Vanilla Challice is two shots of Fruit Punch, Pink Lemonade, Pepsi,
- Diet Pepsi, Mugs rootbeer, and Mountain Dew. Mix well. The
- concoction tastes like vanilla and comes from the cast hanging out at
- Taco Ball after the show. Guess which drinksthe place has.
-
- Meadowbrook - Warwick, RI
- Comments: (This show has suffered greatly due to a pissing contest
- between the former cast and the current cast, when it should have been
- between the former cast and the management. Since the last review was
- written by a disgruntled former cast member, I will give you a more
- fair picture.)
- The film is a mono print with Science Fiction reprise (no Superhero's)
- and has some skips (one of them cuts out most of 'I'm going home').
- The audience has to sign a waver to enter (it just releases the
- theater from people claiming whiplash when hit with rice or toilet
- paper) but you are free to throw props and dance in the isles.
- Although the cast suffers from what seems to be lackluster support
- from management, they perform with much enthusiasm, despite the fact
- that they are sometimes undermanned. And the ongoing cast war between
- them and the former cast, who feel any cast currently here should
- suffer due to their poor relationship with the theater management, has
- not detered them from putting on the best show they can.

-
- Powell Cinemas - Knoxville, TN
- Friday, Midnight, $3.00
- Comments:
- Most of the cast members are really good, though sometimes one member
- wil not show up and hapless friends of the cast get pressed into
- service, sometimes with hilarious results. Audience members can bring
- props with the only two rules being that you're not allowed to throw
- liquids, or those industrial-size rolls ot toilet paper. This seemed
- to be a common sense thing, but some dolt brought them and someone got
- nailed, so it's now an "official" rule.
- --
- Oh yeah, this cast will also be doing the show at the Bijou in
- Downtown Knox-Vegas the first two weekends in August, admission is
- still unknown at this time though last year it was a suggested
- donation of $3, but if you were broke, or just plain cheap, you could
- get in free. :) From what I heard, the rules at the Bijou are a bit
- stricter, and you can only throw popcorn. I'll update you on the
- admission and other things if you want me to.. David Gridley

- Live cast.
- Comments: There are still virgin games before the show (although they
- open the doors at 11:45, leaving us precious little time to get
- anything done before the show).
- The theater is open on Christmas and New Year's, so if they fall on a
- Saturday (as they did this year), we'll be there.

- Oriental - Milwaukee, WI
- Saturdays at Midnight, Admission $6
- Comments: Located on the corner of Farwell and North on the fashionable
- east side of Milwaukee. A Landmark theatre which seats about 500,
- 1000 with balcony (only open for huge crowds, such as Halloween [775
- people this year])--and and all important center isle to do the Time
- Warp in! Performing cast is "Sensual Daydreams", which performs every
- Saturday except holidays and a limited schedule in the summer. The
- cast is big on timing and performance. They also have some excellent
- large props (tank, control panel, weight set, etc). Weekly virgin
- contest (randomly selected on the Virgin Wheel). Props such and rice
- and toast are allowed. Masterbation is allowed in the back row. [ed:!!]

- Hoyts Centre - Sydney, Australia
- Fri, 11:30pm, AUS$11.50 Concession AUS$8
- Comments: Cast usually hang out in the bar at Hoyts, so come by and say
- hello! Hoyts is a 'family' cinema, so no fucking swearing, alright? We
- have been running in this incarnation for four years (Anniversary show
- is Fri May 28, 1993). The cinema is quite good, and we have a great
- print, *including* the SuperHeroes ending! Props are mostly cool, just
- no fried rice or anything squishy :( As always, we need fresh lines,
- so feel free to bring your along!
- Comments: Good cast, some innovative callbacks, and a good quality film
- (with Super Heroes at the end, incidently). Movie doesn't start until
- around 12:00, with the cast building the atmosphere with audience
- participation prior to the screening by sing-a-longs and virgin
- introductions etc. All props are permitted and encouraged (with the
- exception of naked flames). Sheets of newspaper handed out at the
- door, to bewilder the virgins who don't know what to expect.

- Was 40 FIM, what is about $8.00
- Comments: A small one, but shows used to be good. And as I said: RHPS
- hasn't been on the programme for some months, but it might come back
- next autumn or later on the summer.

- Comments: 2 casts, The Absent Friends & The Zen Room.
- Both can be seen mostly on Friday night.
- Comments: I did perform with one of the Paris casts at the Studio
- Galande. They had a Frank in full costume, a Riff and Magenta in full
- costume (with space suits), and a Brad and a Janet who were more or
- less in costume. Eddie just wore a leather jacket. No one but Frank
- really acted out the Floor Show, and they didn't do the dinner scene
- or the rain scene. There was very little space to move around, and
- people brought 1 liter bottles of water in for the rain scene, so
- trying to Time Warp was really dangerous--the floor was slick and
- covered with rice. I had an eighth of an inch of rice on the soles of
- my boots one night...The cast got in free about once a month and did a
- big show. I never did get to see the Saturday midnight cast; my dorm
- had a lock-out policy at 2 am. One thing to note if you ever go to
- Paris: it's a lovely location, across the river from Notre Dame. But
- women, *do not* wear your high heels out of the theater! The
- cobblestones will kill your ankles, and the area is a very busy
- nightlife area. French women do not wear very high heels unless they
- are prostitutes, so bring sneakers for after the show.

- Museums Lichtspiele - Munich, Germany
- Every day, early evening, on weekends late night, ca. DM 10
- Location: Near the ``Deutsches Museum'' in Munich, Germany
- Comments: This theatre is extra-ordinary one. They play every day the
- RHPS (since 15 or so years) and the ``Blues Brothers'' (since 8 years).
- ``The Big Blue'' is shown at least weekly in the long, english version
- (with french subtitles). Other cult movies are shown reguarly as well.

- The Classic - Harold's Cross, Dublin, Ireland.
- Fri & Sat 11:00 pm
- Comments: As far as I know, it's the longest running RHPS in the world
- at over 11 years... and it's still going strong. [ed: not the longest]
- Comments: I've just read the list, and I'd just like to give you some
- info on the Harolds X cinema. There are about 30 regulars who dress up
- for the show, some of whom have been attending for 11 years. The rest
- of the cinema is filled with virgins and occasional attenders. The
- cinema is quite large (in Irish Terms) and there has never been a case
- when the film hasn't gone out on the Saturday or Friday or both. The
- during film shouts and chants are totally different from those on the
- soundtrack, but this ain't a crime.

- next show there will be on the 26.2.94. From time to time there is at
- least a partial cast, depending on whoever arrives.
-
- Cinema Mexico - Milan, Italy
- Fri 8:00pm & 10:00pm
- Comments: water is not allowed.
-
- Paramount Theatre - Wellington, New Zealand
- Either Fri or Sat at 11:15pm, $8.00 or $6.50
- Comments: Either Friday or Saturday nite at 11:15pm. Generally best
- to watch the papers to see if it's on. Admission is $8, or $6.50 if
- you have a Radio Active Sub Card. The theatre is pretty small, but any
- props are allowed except water. There's a fairly large hardcore
- cast, but the average age of them is pretty low (~17- 19). We're
- loud, and we're rowdy, but it's good fun and we love to come up with
- new AP. The film is somewhat cut, missing the entire reprise of 'I
- can Make you a Man' to halfway through the Narrator's speech, and it
- jumps in a few places. We've moved from 3 other theatres; we're
- running out of options, but we stillknow how to party.

- Comments: Yes you can bring your rice (I checked) or confetti and your
- toast, and your water pistols, and your newspapers. Naked flames not
- allowed (I suggest you bring a flash light)! Currently (25Feb94)
- showing every Saturday at 10:00. The first Saturday of each month is
- regarded as particularly dangerous for virgins. Seats 320 people
- downstairs, and 180 upstairs. (500 total) Has run RHPS every Saturday
- (almost) from 1979 to 1989 and has ran RHPS intermittently ever since.
- Also, the Holly Wood is one of the last remaining Theatre to still have
- an original German "Wurlitzer" Organ from the days when Pictures were
- silent. They operate an active "Wurlitzer" appreciation society of
- sorts. However I am not sure of the exact details, ring the Manager to
- check this out.

- Prince Charles Cinema - London, UK
- Fridays
- Comments: off Leicester Square, and they are still performing there,
- every Friday. Their Space Riff & Magenta are a couple called
- Stephanie and David who run the British RHPS Fan Club. Their address
- is:
- Time Warp Fan Club
- 1 Elm Grove
- Hildenborough
- Tonbridge
- Kent TN11 9HE, ENGLAND
- If you write to them and enclose an international reply coupon, they
- can send details of how to join, and they have loads of info on casts
- around the UK. (And there are some!)
- Comments: There seems to be some confusion about whether Rocky still
- plays at the Prince Charles cinema in London - well, it definately
- does. Every Friday at midnight, usually to a packed (but rather
- virginal) audience. Stephanie & David are still in charge, although
- many of the cast members have left over the last year - they were
- advertising for new members last time I heard from them. I'm not
- involved personally, as I can't get there regularly, but quite a few
- of the cast are friends of mine. The virgin sacrifice is a bit tame,
- but it's funny, and they're fairly lenient about props - no naked
- flames, and no pissing off the balcony is all they ask. They really
- are excellent - great costumes, good timing with the film etc, and if
- there were a few more regulars, (preferably in costume) it would be
- near-perfect. Most of the fans are more involved in going to see the
- stage show version at the moment though - it's been VERY sucessful,
- and will be in the West End over summer. Jonathon Morris was born to
- play Frank, and seeing Patricia back on stage as Magenta is amazing.
