Audience Participation

The biggest difference between Rocky Horror and other movies is that you're expected to take part in the experience by interacting with the moving. Yes, there will be a live cast performing along with what you see on the screen, but it's YOU as an audience that bring the movie to life.

Yes, that even means you're supposed to get up and dance during the movie, during the Time Warp and Hot Patootie!

Let's do the Time Warp again! Hot Patootie, Bless my soul... I really love that rock and roll!...
If you haven't seen the movie in awhile (or shame... have never seen it) here is some basic information to get you started.

We're not going to tell you everything, though. You'll have to experience the movie again... and again... and again... (get the hint) for that.


Callbacks

Callbacks are lines and saying yelled at the screen. They can either replace lines in the movie, or thay can be prompts or responses to lines.

We won't give away everything, but here are a few key points:

When Brad Majors appears, it is perfectly alright to call him "Asshole".

When Janet Weiss appears, it is expected that you call her "Slut".

When the Criminologist (Narrator) appears, you can scream in horror at the fact that he has no neck!

There are lots of other sayings, and you'll learn them as you watch. If you have other ideas, or know of other sayings from other theaters, feel free to yell them out! We won't whip you and strip you naked for doing it (well, unless you want us to!)


Props

Props are items used to enhance the viewing experience, and are thrown or used at certain times.

If you don't know the props, or have forgotten to bring them, the have a prop bag available for purchase... proceeds support the cast.

Theater Note: Water (like water pistols, etc) and open flames (lighters, etc) are NOT allowed in the theater. Please respect theater rules and do not bring them!

Here is a list of props and their use:

Rice: During the opening wedding scene, when the crowd throws rice, you can, too!

Throw rice!

Newspaper: When Janet gets out of the car into the rain, she unfolds a newspaper to cover her head (stupid Slut didn't bring an umbrella)... you can do the same. Remember... NO WATER!

Cover your head!

Glowstick or Flashlight: As Brad and Janet sing "There's a Light...", you can hold up your light. Remember... NO OPEN FLAMES!

There's a light!

Rubber Gloves: Frank snaps his rubber gloves three times during his creation speech. If you're good, you can time it with him!

Snap your gloves!

Noisemakers: The Transylvanians let go with noisemakers during Frank's speech. Help them out with yours!

Make some noise!

Confetti: As Rocky and Frank head off to the bridal suite, the Transylvanians throw confetti. You can too!

Throw confetti!

Toast: Frank proposes "A Toast!". Throw your bread at this time.

A toast!

Bell: During "Janet Schmannet", Frank chases Janet around the mansion. Right near the end of his song, he sings "Did you hear a bell ring?". Ring your bell!

Did you hear a bell ring?

Cards: During "I'm Going Home", Frank deals "Cards for sorrow... Cards for Pain". Deal out those cards!

Cards for sorrow... Cards for Pain

And the rule when throwing props in the theater is:
UP and BACK
Never toward the screen!
