I was never much a fan of Rocky Horror after seeing the film many moons ago when even then it looked dating and I found it quite boring. Howeve, I recognised that there were some good tunes in there that I played for a while on CD. I am very grateful to have seen this because it has allowed me to reappraise Rocky Horror and to GET it finally after so many years. Basically it just doesn't work that well as a film, it is so very theatrical and needs that energy and medium to work. Seen here live on stage, the rawkusness and the excitement and the energy of FUN really shines through and I thoroughly enjoyed it. The story is bonkers, but the point is it is about letting go of rigid ideas around sexuality and identity and decorum and its just about having fun and accepting each other and letting your hair down. For that I totally get Rocky Horror now and understand why its fan base love it so. David Bedella is just brilliant. Must watch.
