Raise your eyebrows!

Last nite, Terry and I went to see 'The Rocky Horror Show' at MTC! Well, we finally saw what all the commotion was about! This is one show that'll ooze a response out of audience members. Here's my commentary on the musical:

- Outlandlishly weird
- Freaky
- A delightfully, psychedelic nightmare
- Slightly R-rated & questionable
- Toe-tappin' fun songs (Time Warp!!)
- Excellent singing, acting and stage-presence
- Witty and hilariously funny
- Interactive audience shout-outs encouraged
- Raunchy and racy
- A show that'll make you blush and push your limits to what you can handle

My diagnosis: Don't bring your Baptist-raised Mama and Papa to this show! Definitely an eye-popping musical, sure to push the envelope in a freakish roller coaster sort-of-way; but you wouldn't want to advertise it in your church bulletin.

I am glad that you have such a good brother to take you to shows that would make me blush...

I have never seen the show, but have heard interesting things about it too! Did everyone dress up and throw things at the stage? Thats what life is all about...experiencing new things! Good for you for going!

when i was in university, i was asked to choreograph the rocky horror show and ... not knowing anything about it ... i said YES (it was a pretty big company so i was excited to be asked).

you should have seen my face when i popped in the video. i was like, "oh my gosh ... what have i gotten myself into?!?!?"

i did it, though, and it was tons of fun. :)
