Get ur freak on.

I see you shiver with antici … pation.

Or maybe that’s just me. Yes, I am totally, through the roof, freakish excited about Rocky Horror Picture Show at the Hippodrome tomorrow. Just the thought of it is making me dizzy with nostalgia for tenth grade, when I first discovered RHPS. I long to put on Doc Martens, light up a clove and listen to Sisters of Mercy.

Nah, just going to the show tomorrow night is all I need to get my freak on (yes, I’m taking liberties with this phrase). I hope to see Wacoans from all walks let their wilder side out for the night.

For those not in the know, the event is a viewing of the Rocky Horror Picture Show, but oh, so much more. A live cast is coming up from Austin and of course audience participation is encouraged. In fact, the Hippodrome will even be selling prop bags for $3, which I think is ingenious. If what I’ve just said still makes no sense, pick up a Thursday Trib and check out Access Waco.

As long as I’m fawning over the Hippodrome, I’m just going to go all the way and say that all you Waco naysayers need to step up and recognize the coolness of this little town having a RHPS viewing. Tell me that things aren’t changing around here.

There are still tickets, so come out, Dress up or not, I don’t care. I still don’t know what I’m wearing. Hope to see you there!

Wendy, you better include a picture of what you wore to the show in your next posting. Oh gosh, I wish I were there to go with you! We’d have a blast. And I’ve never been to see it in a theater, so it would be so fun for me, I’m sure. Maybe I’ll plan my trip to see you around this time next year, in hopes that they’ll have a showing again! Love ya!

Before you comment, please take a few moments to make sure that what you're saying is civil and respectful. We don't tolerate personal attacks, insults, name-calling, impersonations or generally hateful comments — they don't make for a pleasant (or productive) conversation.

If you wouldn't say it to your grandmother, you probably shouldn't say it here.
