Program Notes From the Artistic Director: Inspired by the sights and cinema of his youth in small-town New Zealand, O'Brien's exotic fusion of sex, song and science-fiction premiered in a tiny London theatre in 1973. Thirty years on, it has evolved into a cult-classic, an icon of pop culture. Cast alumni include the playwright himself, Tim Curry, Gary Glitter, Russell Crowe and even former Prime Minister Robert Muldoon. Today, its 'naive charm' is as potent as ever, bewitching legions of fans and first-timers on screens and stages throughout the world. They immediately respond to the indelible characters and unforgettable score. but, like all 'classics', The Rocky Horror Show amounts to more than the sum of its parts. Amidst the fishnets and Frank's fiendish plans, we find hope of liberation and love and permission to be oneself in a world where being different is normal, and vice versa. Don't Dream it. Be it. -Simon Prast |
