My earliest stage-managing was for Dr. Scott's Extra Forks - I had no desire to be a part of the cast but would occassionally be called upon for clearing rogue props/holding torches/wheeling an inflatable Dr. Scott around/pretending to be a clock etc. So if the above happens, I bagsy that job again!

Hee hee I'm loving that so many past Rocky performers are all putting our hands (and photos) up to our other 'performing-in-glitter-and-not-much-else' lives!!
And since you mentioned Slave... a pic!

And what a wonderful clock you were! If we get a Forks show this autumn, you may get the chance to tick again...!


While we're at it, here's my Burlesque Rocky cast (a bit of the film, a bit of the stage show....)

Frank - Mimi Le Meaux
Janet - Sarah from Gawkagogo (For old times sake!).
Brad - Dusty Limits as someone else suggested. He could do an immense Weimar-esque "Once in A While"
Riff Raff - Paul from Gawkagogo (as above!)
Magenta - Missy Malone (doing a "Laurie Brett tiger dress" for those who know what that is). Oh and her Bride of Frankenstein's kind of fitting here too.
Columbia - Parma Violet and Suzie Sequin share the role (for ease of costume changes ;-)
Rocky - Vendetta Vain! Or maybe a six foot tall Tallulah Freeway draped in gold.
Eddie - Chris Cross (he could do a great "climb out of a coke fridge totally deformed" bit)
Dr Scott - The guy who sticks lightbulbs up his bum (what's he called again!!!) - simply so we can plug the wheelchair into the mains.
Narrator - Doris Latrine on and in her toilet
The Usherette - um, I dunno, who could do this?.... ;-)

I do hope you realised that was a picture caption! You will always be my Dr Furter of choice!

Hmmm, My fantasy cast ....

Brad: Gotta go with popular opinion and say Dusty
Janet: Golden De Licious...there's sex simmering under all those curls!
Frank: Could be none other than Em or I'll throw a diva-style tantrum!
Rocky: MEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
Columbia: Saff....obviously
Magenta: Leyla Rose for smoldering gothic glam...with Missy as Space Magenta
Eddie: For some reason I wanna see Beatrix vB as a hot rockabilly style Eddie!
Dr Scott: Hmm, The Great Voltini would be good for this!
Narrator: Lord Dashwood...less boring, more eye candy...looks hot in a cravat
Riff: Warren Speed..we know he can rock the near topless with braces look

It's pathetic but I was really hoping someone would cast me as Magenta. I was keeping quiet. And Missy as Space Magenta. Awesome. Thanks little lady.
I do have my own connections with Patricia Quinn. She is from Belfast and is my good friend Johnny's auntie. She sang the time warp at Johnny's brothers wedding. She lives it.
Sorry, but I'm so proud of the link I had to drop it in.

meg's science fiction double feature act is awesome

Am with you Fleur du Mal, why, why cant they come up with some new ideas of their own!!! All the time there are re-makes of old wonderful films, like lady killers I wont see the new one as the old black & white one is just one of the best films.

There should be a law to stop it!!
