Rocky Horror Stage Show audience participation.....

[clairey-s]

I'm off to see Rocky Horror for the first time (yes, I'm a 'Virgin') in November, at St. Georges Hall.... Bfd.

Does anyone know of any websites as a guide to what I'm supposed to shout out etc, I'v allready seen the official site and timewarp.org

Oh lucky you!!! you'll love it!

Last time I went I was 8 months pregnant and dressing up for it was a nightmare- rofl!!!

I've had a quick look for you and likewise couldn't find any websites which told you which moves to do when, so I think the thing to do, (unless someone does come up with a list) is to follow what everyone else around you is doing. You'll no doubt already know they aint complicated moves, and not everyone participates anyway- yes i know, shocking isn't it? LOL

Have a great night- i'm so jealous :-(

There is quite a bit in audience participation on Wikepedia:

saw it a year or 2 back. we went dressed as brad & janet since that takes very little effort to look like you belong, yet don't look too out of place walking home afterwards.

it was an experience, and you will have a fantastic time!

(btw, some venues don't like you throwing rice.)

This website does exactly what it says on the tin, it's the Virgins' Guide to Rocky Horror:

mushroom's right, they're a bit funny about throwing things on this tour. At most venues they search you for rice/water pistols etc and confiscate them (although I did manage to smuggle in a small water pistol when I went a few months ago). Still, I'm sure you'll have a great time, and remember- don't dream it, be it!

have been going to rocky horror for more years than i care to remember. Since you are a virgin take your lead from those around you . Tr y to take rice for the wedding scene some theatres will allow confetti. A newspaper for when it's raining you don't want to get wet. and a water pistol for the storm scene although theatres check I think they seriously like the audience participation. be prepared to heckle, join in with the dancing and cry when the sad bits come on . Most of all enjoy yourself you will go back it's very addictive. I lived in Oklahoma in the late seventies and we went to see the film at a dedicated cinema almost ever weekend. I took my daughter to her first live show when she was 13 and she's a devotee now.

Also, the DVD has an option extra where you can have the audience shouting etc.

lots of shows sell little packs full of all the accessories that you'll need such as toast, rice (if they allow it), cards for sorrow and pain, newspaper etc etc... Take a torch or something for a light and a water pistol.

Its great I have been loads, personally apart from the original picture show Jason Donovan has been the best stage show Franknfurter. I am sure that others will disagree.

[spainlads]

But, a lot of theatres won't allow you to take anything in. So hide them in your knickers :)
