fans of the Rocky Horror Picture Show are generally more familiar with the 1975 Colt film than the original play that inspired it. That's the challenge the Shenandoah Arts Council faced with their own production of The Rocky Horror Show, to please the fans who have experienced the midnight screenings and stay faithful to the original production, they decided to marry elements of the film and stage. Jackie Paterson directed the musical, which will debut tonight in Stanton, incorporating the film culture. What was the result of that film? Because, as we know, that film was probably not the best film ever created. So the reason why people started making up line and screaming at the screen. That tradition is almost as old as the film itself. The production team saw. This is an opportunity to eliminate the fourth wall and incorporate the audience into the show. Prada bags filled with items to throw will be provided per tradition, along with the often risque callbacks. Hard core Rocky horror fans know them by heart. But for those who are less familiar, the lines will be projected on a screen above the stage way. The Rocky Horror Show will be showing at the Shinhan Art. Intel is theater at Gypsy Hill Place this weekend through Sunday, September 17. Tickets and more information can be found at Shinhan Arts. Double for W Emery News on Calvin Pen.
