Sorry it seems you have a crappy work situation. What are your alternatives to getting into a better job with benefits??
i don't want one

i guess i should explain . ..

i'm a freelance stagehand in NYC. so i'm constantly climbing in grids 20-35 feet above the stage, climbing ladders, power tools, serious amounts of electricity (enough to power buildings) etc.

most places would cover me, but some don't

the thing is . . . i make my own schedule and make enough money to take tons of time off to do what i want to do, which is become a photograher. having a full time job sounds like absolute hell to me.

That's true. It probably never was shown in Hooterville.

Ah, well that makes sense. Most theaters playing Rocky Horror are college town small-screens--older theaters, usually, trying to compete with bigger chains.

But seriously, mwf, take your wife, have a few shots, ready yourself for a weird time, and check it out. Take some friends, if you can. Don't admit to being a RHPS "virgin" if you don't want to participate in the ongoing silliness (or admit it, if you do).

The number one rule of Rocky Horror: see it in a theater with fans. Never rent it to watch at home.

RHPS probably didn't show anywere in Kansas. And bringing up Hooterville probably doesn't fit in this forum.
