“The Rocky Horror Picture Show,” released in 1975, has become one of the most iconic cult films of all time. No longer just a movie, it has evolved into an audience-interactive spectacle that encourages movie-goers to dress like their favorite characters, bring props, ad-lib lines to the dialogue, and, of course, sing along to every song. The Springer Opera’s House showed the film with a live shadow cast. While the movie played on a giant screen at the back of the stage, actors performed an improvised version of the film’s events on the stage in front. The performance was a gender-bending interpretation of an already gender-bent production, and it made a fun romp of an old classic.
