STAGE TUBE: On This Day for 3/10/16- THE ROCKY HORROR SHOW

Today in 1975, The Rocky Horror Show opened at the Belasco Theatre, where it ran for 45 performances. The Rocky Horror Show was written by Richard O'Brien, produced and directed by Jim Sharman. It tells the story of a newly engaged couple getting caught in a storm and coming to the home of a mad transvestite scientist unveiling his new creation, a muscle man named Rocky Horror. The musical was adapted into the 1975 film The Rocky Horror Picture Show, which today has a worldwide cult following and has the longest running release in film history.

Fotos! Let's Do the Timewrap - THE ROCKY HORROR SHOW in Gelsenkirchen

Um sich die langen Winterabende zu vertreiben, komponiert der arbeitslose Schauspieler Richard O'Brien 1973 ein abgedrehtes Travestie-Spektakel als Hommage an die Gruselschocker der 1930er Jahre. THE ROCKY HORROR SHOW schlagt ein wie eine Bombe, ebenso die 1975 folgende Filmversion. Zum Kult wird das Stuck jedoch erst, als amerikanische Studenten wahrend mitternachtlicher Kinovorfuhrungen plotzlich eigene Rituale dazu erfinden. Schrage Kostumierungen, Reis, Toastbrot und Wasserpistolen sind seither ein unverzichtbarer Bestandteil des interaktiven Gruselspaßes. Und das selbstverstandlich auch am Musiktheater im Review, wo THE ROCKY HORROR SHOW am Samstag Premiere feierte! Wir haben hier die Fotos von der Produktion in Gelsenkirchen:

BWW Review: THE ROCKY HORROR SHOW at Pitch Me This Productions

Pitch Me This Productions has done a great job bringing THE ROCKY HORROR SHOW to life for this year's annual dose of absolute pleasure and sins of the flesh. The circus idea is fun, even if it doesn't truly make a ton of thematic sense with the Gothic material.
