The Original Cast at the Movies 10: The Rocky Horror Picture Show (1975)

Jason Schlafstein (Chess - 1984) and Courtney Laine Self (Crazy for You) join Patrick and break some podcasting rules for a film that breaks almost every rule. Or does it?

I think it totally depends on presentation. It, of course, could work and has enough goodwill behind it that it probably would do fine. But the theatre would have to put in the work and hire the right people to put it up. I'm not as familiar with the stage show so I can't really speak to it with full knowledge. Thanks so much for listening and commenting and patroning! Your on-air thank you will be up in a few weeks!

I adore Rocky Horror analysis and discussion and this was wonderful, but I personally disagree with the idea that the Rocky Horror play wouldn't fly today. The play, more so in the UK and Europe, is still very popular. There's no shortage of local and regional productions in contemporary times (there was even a live production of the play in the West End in 2015 that was broadcast internationally and received warmly). As a member of the LGBTQ community, I love both whole-heartedly.
