    I was part of the Atlanta cast as well as the cast in New York for a few years. I even have a Rocky Horror tattoo on my leg.

    Rebel---it really is a group experience. In the theatre, the audience participates. For instance, in the beginning when it's raining and Janet has newspaper on her head, the audience will squirt each other with squirt guns and protect themselves with newspapers. And when he calls for a toast, they all throw toast. Then they say certain lines---when he yanks the cloth of the table, and everyone sees they were eating eddie, everyone screams Meatloaf again??

    It's totally juvenile, but used to be a lot of fun.

    And another thing, in the theatre, I have never heard a word the narrator says because everyone screams over top of him telling him to get a neck etc. Only a few key phrases are allowed through, and then they are couched in dialog from the audience that make the lines hysterical.

    It's kind of hard to explain. You gotta be there.

    Now that you are "Broken in", you may want to check out a few of Divine's early movies such as Pink Flamingos, Female Trouble, Polyester and Lust in the Dust. Directed by John Waters, they are also cult classics, right up there with RHPS.

    Ziddinia, Rocky's Undies were Gold Lame'.
