Rocky Horror Show Live

I really enjoyed this. Obviously, it's not as good as being in the audience, although it is a better production than most that I have seen, and it's not as good as being in the audience participation shows - something I did for around 18 months in the late 80s.

The cast is excellent and I really enjoyed the rotating narrators, although there was one I wasn't familiar with, and have since found out was in British Bake Off or something. And while based on the original stage show, it has been influenced by the film - the interaction being the cast (especially the narrators) and the audience worked well. The only negative for me is David Bedella. He was really good in the role, but he's not Tim Curry, and Tim Curry will always be Frank for me.

As a life-long Rocky Horror fan I saved this to watch on Halloween as a double feature with the original.

I didn't expect much but was hoping for better than this.

If I saw it live I guess I'd rate it an 8 but to watch it on my TV? Well the answer is that I don't expect to ever watch it again.

But... I did watch the original again, for the umpteenth time, thoroughly enjoyed it and I expect to watch it over and over again.

If you are a fan, and haven't seen this, it is worth seeing once to make up your own mind.

IMHO: The BEST thing about it was I learned a few words from the songs that I didn't know before. For example: its "river of night's dreaming" - prior to this I thought it was streaming. :)

as I was in the generation that saw the film in Toronto 200-300 times at the Roxy theater and never heard a word of it as we the audience began our responses as soon as the opening credits rolled. What an amazing time !. However with the limitations of the stage I don't think Richard O'Brien would have done this unless it was very high quality. And it is. But always try to see the Rocky Horror film in a crowded theater . I give it 10 sweet transvestites. The music is great. the story remains intact from the film. they allow audience participation. the guest stars are hilarious. Hats off ! As well as whatever else you might be wearing. The actors and vocalists are first class. on the web there is an old interview with Tim Curry explaining the genesis of Rocky Horror as Curry had a play in the downstairs of a London theater and O'Brien , who had this concept was playing upstairs in another play and one night the two got to talking about it. Thank You jeff in Toronto.

I have been a massive fan of the The Rocky Horror all my life and this absolutely did it justice! Brilliant casting. Well worth a watch.

Now I love the original version so I was a little apprehensive but Iam so so glad I went to see this it was fantastic and David is the best of cause after Tim curry lol he plays it perfect could not ask for better if you haven't seen it it's avaliable to watch on you tube you will not be dissapointed
