Assholes and Sluts
Oct. 30th, 2004 11:54 amRocky was fun. However, I showed up at the wrong building. It wasn't Marshall D'Avery. When I walked into the theatre there, I saw a few people with old-fashioned musical instruments, including a giant harp, and I knew this just couldn't be the place. Luckily, there was a poster for the show in the hallway, and that's when I discovered the show was actually at McLaggan Hall. M words are interchangeable to me, I guess.
This time, I knew I was at the right place because a girl drew a big lipsticked V on my forehead and sent me into the auditorium. There was more fishnet than at a Frederick's of Hollywood fashion show.![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
f00dave and I took our seats beside Siobahn (who has dyed her hair the most magnificent and unnatural cherry red), and the show began.
snowy_kathryn did a great job opening the show as the lips. Her corsetted song and dance number with her arse hanging out of a too-short skirt was fabulous. I think she'd do great in burlesque. Then the show proper began.
Disaster struck during the Meatloaf scene. I don't know the actor's name, but we became more acquainted with him later on. During the motorcycle chase scene in the castle, he was running all around the audience, and then took an ill-advised stomp along the backs of the flimsy auditorium seating. I remember thinking, "That's not a very good idea," and that's when he stumbled and took a faceplant onto the back of another seat. He was a real trooper and the show went on, but not before he spit out pieces of his front tooth. I didn't know he'd snapped his front tooth off, butrandom_echoes was up close and personal, and had a nausea moment went the tooth flipped its way past.
The other exciting thing about the show was Nigel. He makes a perfect Frankenfurter. Holy moly! He was spot-on in looks, actions, and attitude.
The crowd were fairly well-behaved. No one was throwing anything, although people were plenty rowdy.
When the show ended, f00 and I took "Meatloaf" and his girlfriend up to the hospital where I hope he got prompt emergency dental work done, and also probably a few stitches on his hamburgered lips. Perhaps luckily for him, he was too drunk to feel any pain. I'll bet he feels it today, though.
I also found out the Rocky Show has an apparent curse. This year was the snapped tooth. Last year was the broken leg. I wonder what will happen at the next one....
