Star Time!

Our awesome sold out show in pictures.

A beautiful baladeer with a bright red guitar begins the show with an arena sized rendition of Science Fiction Double Featue. In the shadows robots improvise Kung Fu dances in slow motion. Brad & Janet take their place atop the Flying Saucer/burlesque stage/wedding cake.



Damn it Janet, I love you.

But before we tie the knot, let's go visit our old science teacher Dr. Scott.

After suffering a blowout the young couple take refuge in a strange castle full of strange people like Riffraff, a butler.



And his sister Magenta, a maid.

Who do strange dances about Time...


and then Nurse Columbia sings about Eddie, a young rebel with a pickup truck and the devil's eyes...


and then everybody sings about Warping through time...


and space...



And then a sweet transvestite/mad scientist named Frankenfurter appears and invites Brad and Janet to the lab




There Frankie reveals his plan to insert half the brain of Eddie into the perfected blond robot body of his creation, the Rocky Horror.



Once he's brought to life Rocky goes on a rampage...




But he's eventually calmed and introduced to the family. Columbia is underwhelmed...


"I didn't make him for you!"


Frankie sings about creation, perfection, and muscles in general...



But Eddie, now a half-brained zombie, escapes with only two objectives...

Kicking other monsters' asses...

And getting busy with nurse Columbia...


So Eddie has to be cut in half with a chainsaw. A spray of red and pink rose petals erupt like blood from his severed torso.


Columbia tosses the spilled blood/petals as Frankie & Rocky are wed




But Frankie's lust is limitless. He seduces Brad and Janet...


at the same time....
Until he discovers an intruder has broken into the building.

Janet tries to be strong.


But when this innocent rock and roll angel discovers what Brad has been up to....


She realizes she needs to be touched by a sexy robot monster.


Frankie discovers that the intruder is none other than Brad and Janet's former science teacher Dr. Von Scott, who may be a secret Nazi in hiding.


Dr. Scott reveals the union of woman and monster... everyone is shocked.


Dr. Scott & Columbia sing about poor Eddie, who didn't like his teddy...


Frankie then feeds fried Eddie--disguised as fried chicken-- to Columbia.


Then he uses a freeze/muscle control ray to make all the players do his bidding.


He orders up a floorshow... "Startime!"








And he is the star...





But the servile siblings Riff & Magenta are actually part of the same multisexual alien lifeform. They rejoin, take over, and announce plans to return to Transexual Transylvania.

Frankie sings "I'm going home."


But he's not. Riffgenta murders Frankie, Columbia, and Rocky. Then they beam themselves back to T.T.



Brad and Janet are shattered, but alive and together.

The balladeer and her sexy red guitar take us home with an eerier, but still arena-sized reprise of Science Fiction Double feature.



And the crowd goes insane. Night after night.
