This is a monthly posting that is posted on or about the 15th of each
|

month.
|
|
|
|
This list is from the Rocky Horror fan club and from people that
|
|
E-Mailed me. Since I didn't go to all of these theaters, I cannot
|
|
guarantee their accuracy. Entries marked with `*' have more information
|
|
about them at the end of the list. Entries marked with `!' are
|
|
temporary. Some of these entries have been slightly edited (mostly for
|
|
conciseness) from the original message sent to me, but the content is
|
|
the same. Also note that this is the official list of the Rocky Horror Fan
|
|
Club. (Thanks to all the people that helped make it that!)
|
|
|
|
I have recently changed colleges and I'm sorry if any additions got lost
|
|
in the shuffle.

These comments are not mine (mostly) but of some of the readers of

|
|
|
|
|
|
The Loft Cinema - Tucson, AZ
|
|
Sat, Midnight, $4.50
|
|
Comments: Huge theater, big screen, new film. Audience mostly high
|
|
school and college students. Some cast members have an awful sense of
|
|
timing. Virgins are married before sacrificed. (We have morals... NOT
|
|
:)
|
|
|
|
Rialto - So. Pasadena, CA
|
|
Sat, Midnight, runs about 8 months per year
|
|
Comments: This place is in the National Registry of Historical
|
|
Landmarks. It is one of the few remaining original vaudville
|
|
theatres, complete with orchestra pit, bizarre pseudo-Egyptian decore,
|
|
and gaudy paint. The balcony is usually closed. You might recognize
|
|
it, because it has been used in _many_ motion pictures. I recall at
|
|
least Kentucky Fried Movie being filmed there. It has been several
|
|
years since I saw Rocky Horror there, but they still line up every
|
|
Saturday.
|
|
Comments: "The Player" is the best known most recent film which takes
|
|
place at the Rialto.
|
|
|
|
Varsity Theatre - Palo Alto, CA
|
|
Sat, Midnight, $6.75; $3.75 if in RHPS costume.
|
|
Phone: 415-323-6411 (program info recording)
|
|
415-323-6431 (box office)
|
|
Comments: A very large (~800 seat?) vintage theatre with a full
|
|
stage. The cast, Erotic Nightmares, just celebrated its 6th
|
|
anniversary.
|
|
|
|
SouthBay Galleria General Cinemas - Redondo Beach, CA
|
|
Cast: "Tonight's Menu", Cinema 3 at midnight on Saturday (or thereabouts)
|
|
Cost: $5, Props: Everything except rice, tortillas, and open flame.
|
|
Directions: 405 to Hawthorne Blvd. Theatre is nestled beside a mall
|
|
(The Galleria) between Artesia and 182nd about a mile SouthWest of the
|
|
freeway on Hawthorne.
|
|
Comments: The theatre is a large commercial (500 seat) theatre with no
|
|
atmosphere, but the cast makes every attempt to get the audience in
|
|
the "Rocky" mood. A stage is set up in the front of the theatre and
|
|
professional lighting is used to illuminate the actors. Prior to the
|
|
show is what has been described as "one of the most continuously
|
|
original pre-shows ever done" where virgins are sacrificed in
|
|
different ways each week. There is usually a social smoke-fest in the
|
|
lobby where regulars tend to ignore long stretches of the movie. The
|
|
cast is open and very friendly with the audience. "Tonight's Menu" is
|
|
3 years old.
|
|
|
|
UC Berkeley - Berkeley, CA
|
|
Sat, Midnight, $6.00
|
|
Comments: It's about 5 blocks below UCB. The cast is excellent and it
|
|
is considered the best cast in the country (so say the fan club in
|
|
NY). We have official virgin hunters outside the theater before the
|
|
show. The virgins are marked with "V" or "Fuck Me" in lipstick on
|
|
their faces so that they can be easily identified by those with rice
|
|
and other projectiles. We also have Super Heroes in the uncut version
|
|
of the film. We also show shorts or music videos before the main
|
|
feature. Sometimes the cast isn't there, but we have a good time
|
|
anyway. About four times a year we have lengerie night complete with
|
|
a competition for the best outfit. Other goofy things are known to
|
|
happen, like last night when the entire cast was dressed as Star Trek
|
|
characters who had been forced to play out the roles of RH. Our next
|
|
lengerie night is tentatively scheduled for early July.
|
|
Comments: Berkeley has been running the longest of them all..

Camera One - San Jose, CA
|
|
Sat, Midnight
|
|
Phone: 408-294-3800
|
|
|
|
Palace - Montreal, Canada
|
|
St. Catherine St. W.
|
|
|
|
Flatiron - Boulder, CO
|
|
Every other week (?)
|
|
Phone: 303-442-1944.
|
|
Comments: The theater is at the corner of 13th Street and College, just
|
|
one block from the CU-Boulder campus. It seems to show only every two
|
|
weeks. The cast is called Deep Throat Nine, and they are a crazy
|
|
bunch: they yell backa t the audience and throw things at them,
|
|
including a two-quart pitcher of water in the water-cooler scene in
|
|
Sweet Transvestite. Before the show are cast-lead cheers and songs and
|
|
jokes. No Super Heroes. A lot less structure than the show at
|
|
Berkeley CA.
|
|
|
|
????? - Ft. Collins, CO
|
|
Comments: The cast "The Rocky Whores" is organized by the Rocky Horror
|
|
society at Colorado State University. for the last 2 years, the cast
|
|
has been able to convince the Aggie Theater (I don't remember the
|
|
address) to allow limited showings once or twice a semester, usually
|
|
3-4 shows over a weekend shows will no longer be done at the Aggie
|
|
since new seats were installed over the summer. the Rocky Horror
|
|
society is now trying play the show at the CSU Lory Student Center
|
|
Theater. the the cast is comprised of Rocky Horror society members as
|
|
well as members of Boulder's Deep Throat 9 cast. the show is
|
|
basically the same as the one in boulder, except for the print and a
|
|
few props and pre-show activities. the Rocky Whores have had a Super
|
|
Heroes print. additional props include a tank, and a 7 foot stuffed
|
|
gorrilla during the floor show. pre-show contests include "lets fake
|
|
an orgasm" and "lets fake oral sex". other than this, the show is
|
|
similar to any other. the audience usually contains more virgins than
|
|
veterans, but that is fun as well.
|
|
|
|
York Square - New Haven, CT
|
|
Fri & Sat, 11:30, $5.50 - Comes and goes, usually stays for several
|
|
weeks at a time.
|
|
Comments: They usually search you for props. Current reels are heavily
|
|
damaged.
|
|
|
|
Northlake 8 - Atlanta, GA
|
|
Comments: If you are looking for a really professional cast, might I
|
|
suggest the Northlake 8 in Atlanta. The cast really does a good job
|
|
(and, I played Brad/Riff/Magenta there for a year prior to moving to
|
|
Gainesville). The Northlake 8 is a great theater! For directions,
|
|
just take I-75 to Northlake Drive and head east. You cannot miss the
|
|
Mall, it is on the right side of Northlake Drive, and the AMC is near
|
|
Toys-R-Us. Tell them Tom Servo sent ya! Ask for Kim McFarland, she
|
|
is the area Rep of the Nat'l Fan Club, as well as a teriffic Frank!
|
|
|
|
The Wave - Honolulu, HI
|
|
Last Saturday of the month, 8:00pm, *FREE*
|
|
Comments: Here is a great deal for any Rocky fan if they are planning a
|
|
trip to Hawaii. If you are in town on the last Saturday of the month
|
|
a club called "The Wave" plays the movie for free. The only problem
|
|
with this showing is that there is no cast to speak of, and that the
|
|
show begins at 8:00 p.m. or there about. There are us few regulars
|
|
that go almost every month and we are starting to get more to come to
|
|
the show. Who knows we might get a cast on of these days.
|
|
|
|
Henenway Theater - University of Hawaii Manoa campus, HI
|
|
Saturday at midnight, $4.00
|
|
|
|
Greenbriar Theater - Indianapolis, IN
|
|
Sat. Midnight $4.00
|
|
Comments: We are an up-and-comming cast that has been around for a
|
|
while but is just now getting up on our feet. If you have just come
|
|
to Indiana for college or whatever and are looking for a regular
|
|
Rocky, we can use some dedicated cast members. We get wild and out of
|
|
control, but hey, it's Rocky Horror and it is a hell of a time. To
|
|
get to Greenbriar, take the northern leg of I465, take the Meridian
|
|
street exit and go south and then turn right onto 86th street and go
|
|
for several blocks until you get to 86th and Ditch.

Harvard Square - Cambridge, MA
|

Midnight on Fri and Sat, $6.75
|
|
Comments: Across the street from Harvard.
|
|
|
|
Southside Marketplace - Baltimore, MD
|
|
Fri & Sat
|
|
Comments: Highly recommended
|
|
Comments: [this is] TERRIBLE. It certainly is *NOT* a must see and I
|
|
tried them out several times. It was ok at the other theater, but this
|
|
show is horrible.
|
|
|
|
Uptown - Minneapolis, MN
|
|
Fri & Sat, Midnight
|
|
Comments: I saw the RHPS there many times growing up: The Uptown is a
|
|
relatively small theatre with great atmo. Don't try to sneak in
|
|
alcohol or too much rice, they frisk you at the door. Their motto:
|
|
"Drink it before you get here." The cast is good, the crowd is odd,
|
|
as usual, and the people are relatively friendly, if messed up.
|
|
|
|
Cinema 35 - Paramus, NJ
|
|
Fri & Sat, Midnight, $5.00
|
|
Comments: Our cast went to the Rocky Horror mini convention in
|
|
Washington DC on April 24th. Out of the six of us who went, three of
|
|
us pulled first places in the costume contest. Out of all the other
|
|
theatres represented there we were told by all of them that we had the
|
|
loudest most enthusiastic Rocky crew any of them had ever seen. Even
|
|
Sal heard some lines he never heard before. Our lines are always up to
|
|
date. On that weekend we had some David Koresh lines strewn about by
|
|
us. Our theatre allows most things except it only allows cast members
|
|
and the five transylvanians we haqve to go up to the first few rows of
|
|
the theatre and up to the screen. THere are no open flames permited in
|
|
our theatre (well except for mike but hes okay) so the lighter scene
|
|
is done with flashlights. We are allowed to throw just about anything.
|
|
New lines are always welcome. The only problem with our theatre is
|
|
that our film is falling apart. The entire dinner scene is cut from
|
|
when Frank turns off the magnet until Eddies Teddy begins. During the
|
|
wedding scene a huge blue line runs accross the screen back an forth.
|
|
Its cool sometimes because every so often our film's mess ups lead to
|
|
new lines. We are currently in the process of getting a new film fron
|
|
TC Fox.

|
Harwan - Mt. Ephraim, NJ
|
|
Saturday, midnight, $5.00
|
|
Comments: I am a member of the Transducer Players from the Harwan
|
|
Theater in Mount Ephraim, NJ. We are one of the oldest casts in the
|
|
country. We are also the only cast in South Jersey. The Transducer
|
|
Players are pictures on pages 120-121 of Sal's 15th anniversary book,
|
|
as well as pictured on the back cover with the eastside cinema cast.
|
|
(That was just after they lost the 8th street playhouse in the
|
|
village.) We haven't had Friday night shows in over two years. Thank
|
|
the econnomy for that. What we do have are shows EVERY saturday night
|
|
at midnight, admition is still only $5.00. The theater itself is a
|
|
single screen, 640 seat theater complete with stage. It's actually an
|
|
old vaudville theater. An average show is 200-250 people. We sell
|
|
out every weekend in october.
|
|
--
|
|
Our important show is undoubtably Halloween, and we put on the best
|
|
show anywere. But this year on October 16th, Sal Piro himself is
|
|
going to visit. Sal will host the show, as well as sell stuff. (Ever
|
|
meet him? Ya know how he is...) I wanted you to be aware of that.

Comments: Cast, virgin ceremonies, the usual (?). No Super Heroes.
|
|
Torrey Pines also runs Heavy Metal, Sid and Nancy, animation, anime,
|
|
other midnight-type movies on the same schedule. (93 May 14)

Amherst - Buffalo, NY
|
|
Comments: Has cancelled Rocky for summer BUT it will be back up the
|
|
last week of August,approximately.. Most of our cast has been going to
|
|
see it at the StoneRidge , in Rochester..:)
|
|
Comments: Rocky will be back at the Amherst as of Aug 28,hopefully..
|
|
|
|
Lockport Mall - Buffalo, NY
|

Comments: The crowds are small and the cast is sporadic..but it's fun!!
|
|
It is off of Transit Rd.,FYI
|
|
|
|
Movieland 8th Street - New York, NY
|
|
Price - $7.50 (Just like most New York City movies...Yuck)
|
|
Every Friday and Saturday night
|
|
Comments: Rocky is still going strong in New York City at Movieland, on
|
|
8th St. (Just 1 block from the now closed 8th St. Playhouse). While
|
|
the cast is constantly changing, there are a few regulars, including
|
|
several people who date back to the Playhouse, and even the Waverly,
|
|
before that. Rice isn't allowed, but lighters, and noisemakers are.
|
|
In fact, they are sold by the cast for people who forgot to bring
|
|
props. Virgins are sacrificed, sometimes (when time, and the
|
|
projectionist allow) we have a few pre-show numbers. We have
|
|
Superheroes. After the show the cast (and as many people as we can
|
|
drag with us) usually go to Polyesthers (A 70's theme bar with Rocky
|
|
in the Jukebox). They love us. We usually go in costume, and they
|
|
put Rocky on the TV when we get there.
|
|
|
|
Cinema East - Nyack, NY
|
|
Comments: I enjoyed this theater. went there twice. they have a pink
|
|
panther short at the beginning, and (when i was there) a good cast.
|
|
mostly the same lines as 8th street playhouse.

Jo-Mor's Stoneridge Theater - Rochester, NY
|
|
Fri & Sat, midnight, $5.00
|
|
Comments: I am a former member of the cast that performs here, "Sweet
|
|
Temptations". When I left, the show had deteriorated to the point of
|
|
being just not fun anymore--obnoxious management, random horsing
|
|
around while in costume, etc. However, the cast finally saw the low
|
|
attendance which resulted from this, and is now trying to get serious
|
|
and rebuild itself. I'm always willing to give second chances when
|
|
they're due...so go check 'em out, and give them some well-needed
|
|
encouragement.
|
|
Comments: I'm a current member of the cast. It's fairly open, and
|
|
we're always trying to recruit new cast members. We enjoy good
|
|
relations with management, the cast and regulars regularly hang out
|
|
together (after the show, and otherwise), and we interact strongly
|
|
with our audiences.

Graceland - Columbus, OH
|
|
Fri & Sat, Midnight, $4.00
|
|
(614) 888-3523
|
|
Comments: The Rocky Horror Picture Show is playing at the Graceland
|
|
Twin Cinema in Columbus, Ohio at the Graceland shopping Center off of
|
|
High Street. It plays both Friday and Saturday nights at midnight (of
|
|
course) with a live cast both nights (two members of which are writing
|
|
this message). Price of admission is $4.00, though the cast does get
|
|
in for free. If you have any questions, call the theatre at (614)
|
|
888-3523 and ask for Brian, Mae, or Wendy. If you have any virgins
|
|
amongst you, ask for Brian, he'll take care of them. P.S. only rice is
|
|
allowed for audience props! and no fucking rice at the cast!!!

|
|
Clinton Street - Portland, OR
|
|
Sat, $4.00 with cast, $3.50 without
|
|
Comments: Shows run every Saterday night with the Caberiet performing
|
|
about every other weekend. It has been showing RHPS for almost 17
|
|
years which I believe makes it the longest running show in the US.
|
|
Audience varies, tends to be louder on cast nights, but good. There
|
|
are often theme nights, last night, for example was "Fuck with your
|
|
character night" The one con is that you are considered a virgin if
|
|
you have never seen RHPS at Clinton Street. Overall it's lots of fun.
|
|
|
|
Lehigh - Allentown, PA
|
|
Fri & Sat, Midnight, $5.50
|
|
Comments: Name of the cast is "Sins of the Flesh" out of Bethlehem, PA.
|
|
Excellent cast, all ages and skill levels. Has been known to perform
|
|
RHPS at more than one location at the same night. (ie enuff talented
|
|
cast for two complete performances.)
|
|
|
|
The Hollywood Theater - Pittsburgh, PA
|
|
Sat, midnight, $3.00
|
|
Comments: They have a performance cast. They also show TWO Tim Curry
|
|
Videos before Rocky starts, Paradice Garage and I do the Rock. They
|
|
are the only place in the Pitsburgh area that has the current rights.
|
|
You are allowed all standard props except WATER. we also have a brand
|
|
new Print of it and it looks GREAT!
|
|
Comments: Not only that, but it *does* contain the entire "Super
|
|
Heroes"--only time in 10+ years of viewing in both SoCal and
|
|
Pittsburgh I have ever seen that scene.
|
|
|
|
Meadowbrook Cinema - Warwick, RI
|
|
Fri & Sat, midnight, $5.00
|
|
Cast: Creatures of the Night
|
|
Comments: The management of this theater is REALLY obnoxious...he
|
|
doesn't allow any religious comments, the house lights are up during
|
|
the show so the security can force people to stay in their seats
|
|
(except for the Time Warp, of course), the audience has to sign a
|
|
WAIVER before buying tickets, etc.). In February of 1993, the original
|
|
cast had a huge fallout with said management, and left the theater.
|
|
The current cast has been assembled by management. They haven't been
|
|
around long enough to develop much of the petty politics that are
|
|
associated with some casts, and so they can concentrate more on the
|
|
show. Personally, I don't recommend this theater, but if you're in the
|
|
neighborhood.... The original cast is now at the Jane Pickens
|
|
Theater.
|
|
Comments: [this] is a great show for anyone not involved in the petty
|
|
politics which are associated with some RHPS casts. All they did was
|
|
get rid of some of the trouble makers and still have a great cast. It
|
|
sounds like sour grapes in [this] list.
|
|

|
Jane Pickens Theater - Newport, RI
|
|
Will run Fri. & Sat. as long as attendance is good; may be just Sat. in winter
|
|
Cast: Absolute Pleasure Players
|
|
Comments: This is the new home of the Absolute Pleasure Players, after
|
|
we fled the Meadowbrook (see above). We do lipsynch preshows before
|
|
the movie, and we have special "V.I.P." virgin seating. No rice
|
|
allowed (you can throw popcorn instead), but all other audience props
|
|
are fine. It's a very good show... highly recommended. Some cast
|
|
members may cross over between the two RI theaters on occasion (but
|
|
not often...we're better. :-) ).
|
|
Comments: some of the Meadowbrook (Warwick, RI) cast still perform at
|
|
both and on friday nights, this is a good show ( not so good on
|
|
saturday)

Hoyts Centre - Sydney, Australia
|
|
Fri, 11:30pm, AUS$11.50 Concession AUS$8
|
|
Comments: Cast usually hang out in the bar at Hoyts, so come by and say
|
|
hello! Hoyts is a 'family' cinema, so no fucking swearing, alright? We
|
|
have been running in this incarnation for four years (Anniversary show
|
|
is Fri May 28, 1993). The cinema is quite good, and we have a great
|
|
print, *including* the SuperHeroes ending! Props are mostly cool, just
|
|
no fried rice or anything squishy :( As always, we need fresh lines,
|
|
so feel free to bring your along!
|
|
Comments: Good cast, some innovative callbacks, and a good quality film
|
|
(with Super Heroes at the end, incidently). Movie doesn't start until
|
|
around 12:00, with the cast building the atmosphere with audience
|
|
participation prior to the screening by sing-a-longs and virgin
|
|
introductions etc. All props are permitted and encouraged (with the
|
|
exception of naked flames). Sheets of newspaper handed out at the
|
|
door, to bewilder the virgins who don't know what to expect.
|

|
Valhalla - Melbourne, Australia
|
|
This show only plays once a month, on Saturday night

Comments: (they show Blues Bros every Fri night) Very traditional cast,
|
|
I think they stick to the audience participation album!

Cinema Mondo - Helsinki, Finland, Europe
|
|
Sat, 11:00 - Used to be every Sat at 11:00, but it has been on a break for
|
|
few months now, though they promised that it'll get back to
|
|
programme.
|
|
Was 40 FIM, what is about $8.00
|
|
Comments: A small one, but shows used to be good. And as I said: RHPS
|
|
hasn't been on the programme for some months, but it might come back
|
|
next autumn or later on the summer.

Berliner Kammerspiele - Berlin, Germany
|
|
Is anyone in Germany reading this thing except me? I have a small
|
|
contribution to your list of theatres, Rocky is playing in. There is a
|
|
private theatre
|
|
Berliner Kammerspiele,
|
|
Alt-Moabit 99
|
|
1000 Berlin
|
|
Germany
|
|
showing a live show of the Rocky Horror Show for years now. After a
|
|
winter's break Rocky comes back in March 94, I think.
|
|
Furthermore Rocky plays in some state theatres in Germany. I know of a
|
|
production in
|
|
Musiktheater im Revier
|
|
Gelsenkirchen
|
|
starting in October or November 93,
|
|
and of a promising production of Rocky in
|
|
Staatstheater Saarbrucken
|
|
starting in October 94 (!).
|

Paramount Theatre - Wellington, New Zealand
|
|
Either Fri or Sat at 11:15pm, $8.00 or $6.50
|
|
Comments: Either Friday or Saturday nite at 11:15pm. Generally best
|
|
to watch the papers to see if it's on. Admission is $8, or $6.50 if
|
|
you have a Radio Active Sub Card. The theatre is pretty small, but any
|
|
props are allowed except water. There's a fairly large hardcore
|
|
cast, but the average age of them is pretty low (~17- 19). We're
|
|
loud, and we're rowdy, but it's good fun and we love to come up with
|
|
new AP. The film is somewhat cut, missing the entire reprise of 'I
|
|
can Make you a Man' to halfway through the Narrator's speech, and it
|
|
jumps in a few places. We've moved from 3 other theatres; we're
|
|
running out of options, but we stillknow how to party.

Prince Charles Cinema - London, UK

|
|

around the UK. (And there are some!)
