The small BX studio is a flurry of activity as scantily clad actors race across the room, preparing for the fast-approaching performance.
Big Apple Productions91裸聊视频� and director Neal Facey, backed by a team of talented actors willing to bare it all on stage, are gearing up to do the time warp again in the fourth annual Rocky Horror Show at O91裸聊视频橩eefe Ranch Oct. 25-28.
91裸聊视频淚 thought that, after most of our audience having seen the show, I assumed they would have had enough,91裸聊视频� Schein said. 91裸聊视频淏ut a local uprising not only from the audience but from cast and crew was really exciting. The show must go on.91裸聊视频�
With roots in the original 1973 London musical written by Richard O91裸聊视频橞rien, the performance tells of a trusting young couple Janet Weiss (played by Melaney Campbell) and Brad Majors (Craig Howard) who find themselves in need of aid after their car breaks down.
They travel to a nearby castle, only to fall under the twisted supervision of Dr. Frank N. Furter (Brian Martin) 91裸聊视频� the depraved mad scientist in fishnets and high-heels 91裸聊视频� and his lackeys Riff Raff (Don Cecile), Magenta ( ) and Furter91裸聊视频檚 prized creation, Rocky Horror (Richard Chippendale).
It91裸聊视频檚 a story of science fiction, B horror, sexuality and physical comedy. And it91裸聊视频檚 one that has gained traction in Vernon audiences.
91裸聊视频淥n the surface, it feels like a nonsensical show with very little plot,91裸聊视频� Schein said. 91裸聊视频淚t just grew this incredible cult following. Now, more than ever, the message of being yourself and giving in to life91裸聊视频檚 pleasures are more relevant than ever before. I think on the popularity of the show, people want a space where they can feel welcomed and the Rocky Horror Show does that.91裸聊视频�
Facey, who has directed the show for the past four years, agreed.
91裸聊视频淚t91裸聊视频檚 a good show about inclusion 91裸聊视频� that91裸聊视频檚 the message that people are grabbing,91裸聊视频� he said.
The message embedded in the performance, said Burgher 91裸聊视频� who was a phantom in her introduction to the Rocky Horror Show last year 91裸聊视频� is one that strikes close to home.
91裸聊视频淚 think Vernon comes across as a conservative town, yet everyone loves this crazy show. Given the show has a cult following everywhere and that the message is so awesome, it91裸聊视频檚 really not surprising,91裸聊视频� she said. 91裸聊视频淚t91裸聊视频檚 a town where they don91裸聊视频檛 get that outlet.91裸聊视频�
And for Chippendale, who is making his debut on the stage in Rocky91裸聊视频檚 iconic skimpy gold Speedo, it91裸聊视频檚 an opportunity to push beyond his comfort zone.
91裸聊视频淚t91裸聊视频檚 crazy. I really wanted to do something big when I turned 50,91裸聊视频� Chippendale said, joking that it doesn91裸聊视频檛 get bigger than Rocky. 91裸聊视频淚 saw it two years ago and was blown away. It91裸聊视频檚 really a huge opportunity. I never dreamt of it in a million years. I truly believe you have to live each day. Anything you want to do, do it. That91裸聊视频檚 why I91裸聊视频檓 here.91裸聊视频�
Pushing beyond the boundaries is something that is becoming more comfortable for Martin, who is ready for his fourth year as Dr. Frank N. Furter.
91裸聊视频淚t feels great. I think this is the most fun I91裸聊视频檝e had doing this,91裸聊视频� Martin said as he sat in an outfit of heavy eye makeup, a tight black leather vest, fishnets and high-heels, leaving little to the imagination. 91裸聊视频淚 get super nervous doing this, but it feels good this year.91裸聊视频�
And it91裸聊视频檚 a sentiment that is widely felt throughout the Rocky Horror Show cast.
91裸聊视频淚t feels so good,91裸聊视频� Burgher said of the production. 91裸聊视频淲hen she (Schein) decided that it was going to happen, I knew I was going to come back.91裸聊视频�
Given her previous experience in the show, Burgher is excited to try out a new character.
91裸聊视频淚 was a bit sad to lose the phantom, but it91裸聊视频檚 a really different perspective,91裸聊视频� she said.
To keep the show fresh for audience who are back for their fourth year, Schein and her team have added surprise changes and a list of local celebrity guest narrators, including Mayor Akbal Mund, Betty Selin of Sun FM, the esteemed Barry Dorval, Sproing Creative91裸聊视频檚 Heath Fletcher and many more 91裸聊视频� all leading to a production Schein boasts as raunchier than ever.
But with Martin and Howard as the only actors returning to their former roles, it91裸聊视频檚 a homecoming that is sure to be different from previous years.
91裸聊视频淚t91裸聊视频檚 been good this year because we have a new cast,91裸聊视频� Facey said, adding that some actors have stayed with the cast but moved to different roles. 91裸聊视频淚t91裸聊视频檚 fresh. It91裸聊视频檚 a fun show 91裸聊视频� people should come out and expect to be entertained.91裸聊视频�
As the crew works hard to do the time warp again, excitement is high to bring back the Vernon Halloween tradition.
91裸聊视频淚t feels wonderful,91裸聊视频� Schein said. 91裸聊视频淓very time we get into the production, it feels like coming home.91裸聊视频�
