Shan went to see Rocky Horror!
I posted a while back about how I wished I could see RHPS the Musical when it played in Toronto (as if I could actually just jet off to Toronto, ha ha). Shanmonster went to see it though (btw, her blog is a GREAT source of dance video of all types, not to mention funky fun links. She comments on one strange aspect of RHPS going "mainstream":
"The audience was a strange one, though. I think well over half of the audience was over retirement age, which was a new experience for me. To get people into the spirit of things, at the beginning we were all to give a big hug to the person sitting next to us. I turned and hugged an elderly lady, and to my surprise, she was a very huggy lady, giving me a giant hug back. I’m not terribly surprised the audience wasn’t very rowdy. The elderly folks sitting next to me left at the intermission, which makes me rather sad. Still, there were enough people shrieking "asshole," "slut," and dancing the timewarp to make it a proper Rocky show."
Jealousy, thy name is Gray…it’s not coming on tour to Madison.
