My Interests

I'd like to meet:

"The Rocky Horror Picture Show" movie is an outrageous assemblage of the most stereo-typed science fiction movies, comics, surfing movies, and rock 'n' roll of every vintage. Running through the story is the sexual confusion of two middle American Ike-Age kids confronted by the complications of the decadent morality of the 70's, represented in the person of the mad 'doctor' Frank-N-Furter, a transvestite from the planet Transexual in the galaxy of Transylvania.

On the way to visit an old college professor, the two clean cut kids, Brad Majors (Barry Bostwick) and his fiancee Janet Weiss (Susan Sarandon) have a flat tire, and seek help at the site of a light down the road. It's coming from 'the Frankenstein place', where Dr. Frank-N-Furter (Tim Curry) is in the midst of one of his maniacal experiments - he's created the perfect man, a rippling piece of beefcake christened "Rocky Horror" (Peter Hinwood), and intends to put him to good use in his kinky household retinue, presided over by a hunchback henchman named Riff Raff (Richard O'Brien), his incestuous sister Magenta (Patricia Quinn), and assisted by a tap dancing groupie-in-residence, Columbia (Little Nell).

In awe at this world of science fiction and fantasy, Brad and Janet don't know what next to expect, when the disastrous result of a previous experiment, an oafish biker named Eddie (rock singer Meatloaf), plows through the laboratory wall, wailing on a saxophone. Frank puts a permanent end to this musical interruption without thinking twice, until the old professor Brad and Janet had set out to visit, Dr. Scott (Jonathan Adams), turns up at the castle in search of his missing nephew, the juvenile delinquent Eddie. He knows that Frank-N-Furter is an alien spy form another galaxy, and sets out to turn him in, but Frank moves too fast, seducing first Janet, then Brad, into his lascivious clutches. Overwhelmed by a newfound libido, Janet hotly attacks the stud Rocky Horror while Brad is under the covers with Frank.

Before Dr. Scott can bring justice and morality into this topsy-turvy Transylvanian orgy, Frank-N-Furter has turned his captives to stone, in preparation for a new 'experiment' - an all drag revue - when Riff Raff and Magenta reappear in Transylvanian space togs to wrest control of the mission from Frank-N-Furter, whose lifestyle is too extreme even for his fellow space travelers. When his lavish histrionic claims of chauvinism fail to soften up Riff Raff and Magenta, Frank-N-Furter tries to escape, only to be gunned down by their powerful ray guns. Rocky rushes to save his creator, but he, too, is blasted to outer space by the militants. Brad, Janet and Dr. Scott are left in a fog, incapable of readjusting to the normalcy of the life they've left behind in Denton, now that they've tasted forbidden fruits.

From an experimental production in a small London theater, to a smash international stage hit to a major motion picture, all in the space of 18 months! That's the exciting history of The Rocky Horror Picture Show. Created by Richard O'Brien, who wrote the book, music, and lyrics, calls it "something any ten-year old could enjoy", this homage to the horror film opened in London at the Royal Court's experimental Theatre Upstairs as a six-week workshop project in June, 1973. The show received such acclaim at this 60-seat theatre that it was quickly moved to larger quarters in a converted cinema in Chelsea. Following the movie theatre's demolition, the show found a permanent home at the 500-seat King's Road Theatre.a>
