Going to the Panto isn't going to happen this year (boo hoo says Jenn as its her favourite thing to do at midwinter) so Sean, Jenn and Lou did the next best thing. They went to see the Rocky Horror Picture Show at Christchurch. Staring Richard O'Brien as the Narrator.
It was really rather jolly good! Lovely to see Richard was working that denim in a full teddy boy suit with biker boots and breaking the cardinal rule of fashion: denim on the top or denim on the bottom but never denim all over or you'll look like susy quattro. But the award for most stage presence had to go to Dr Frankenfurter! Wow! Juan Jackson was possibly the sexiest man to wear a pair of fishnets and heels ever. We almost got knocked off our seats with the charisma. Sean says he's not gay but he would...
The audience did the usual dressing up thing - though in some cases we think that they hadn't it was their normal attire. Lots of singing along, some annoying quoting the script verbatim going on. Rice throwing, water squirting and some very adult content. We had a very good time. Sean says its the best stage play he's been to in a long time - he has realised how much he has missed sitting in the cabaret tents at music festivals...
