Rocky Horror is a not-so-good play for our school. will u come on in and think of some changes for our play?!

FOR EXAMPLE:
Instead of "My libido hasn't been controlled", you could say "His creation hasn't been controlled".

I think either your school should do Rocky the right way, or not do it at all, because Rocky doesn't deserve the pansy treatment.

Seriously... to censor Rocky is to kill Rocky.

Then don't do it.

Other high schools have performed Rocky intact. If your high school cannot do the same, then they apparently don't *deserve* Rocky. (Also, if minor words like 'libido' can't even be used, they need to get their heads out of their collective Christian asses.)

Twice in the last 24 hours I have heard someone talk about high schools performing Rocky Horror. I can't imagine that being possible. Does anyone know of a specific production of this?

I am the drama sponsor at my school and if I tried to mount a production of Rocky I would certainly lose my job.

We need to do it, because last year, we argued over who would sing INTERPLANET JANET! (self explanatory) and the teacher said we cannot do it intact, because I am in middle school in 8th grade! Plus, our principal likes RHPS a lot.

And, oh yeah. We need to figure out rocky's dance. If we didn't change anything, we would be fired. :oops:

As much as I hate to say it, go with some of the changes they used in The Rocky Horror Glee Show. (But cast a boy as Frank, no exceptions! :D)

Agree ^^ - Definately not a girl.

And it would help if you told people what lyrics you needed changed instead of jus USING CAPITALS and expecting people to give them to you. Many shows (take les mis for example) take out songs for the school versions... start there?

You might want to take out the park when Frank seduces Brad and Janet, or change it to something such as just making out rather than actual sex...or whatever you feel is appropriate for your school.

lyrics needed changed:

a few lyrics in rocky's part (you know the words, just think!)
a lot of lyrics in "toucha"
lyrics in "don't dream it"
in "planet shmanit" say "mental mind-flip" instead of "mental mind-****"

scenes needed changed/omitted:
bedroom scenes

Okay, first off:
"lyrics in 'don't dream it'"
The only lyrics in that particular part are "Don't dream it, be it" repeated a bunch of times. I don't see anything wrong with those 5 words, do you?

As for "Touch-a Touch-a," maybe you could try "I wanna be flirty" instead of "dirty?" :P Sure, it's kind of lame, but at least it's appropriate for middle school kids.

lyrics that need to be changes:
"give yourself over to absolute pleasure..."

I don't really see anything wrong with that...but if I think of something I'll let you know.

I have a line you could use rather than "his creation hasn't been controlled" instead of "my libido hasn't been controlled." Why not "But somebody should be told/My desires haven't been controlled"?

As a side-note, when I first saw RHPS, I didn't even know what a libido was...

okay...

Rather than "Now the only thing I've come to trust/Is an orgasmic rush of lust," make it "Fantastic rush of ____." Think of something to rhyme with trust, or change that, too, but right now I'm stumped. Sorry.
