That Stage! Oh yes! I banged my knee many times on it running up to do Time Warp! Tim Curry Shorts: In addition to “I do the Rock ” The also showed “Paradise Garage” which has a cameo of Dori Hartley as Frank N. Furter. (It’s up on youtube for those who need to see it this second) As for the aformentioned Neon lights, There’s a photo of them on the NYC RHPS Supporters/Survivors Society website http://www.rockyhorror.cc/viewtopic.php?t=204 I also reccomend you register and share some of your memories there too! You may even see pics or run into folks you might remember fom back then. (Plus I notice you cant see the pics if you don’t sign in, oh drama!)

All the co owners of the Playhouse sold it to Steve Hirsch and he reigned until his passing (AIDS) in the early 90’s.

I miss those old Playhouse days! If you know any former 8th St Staff, or NY Rocky Horror performers or regulars, please have them them stop by our website and share some memories. (www.rockyhorror.cc) aka The NYC RHPS Survivors/Supporters Society. We are also seeking members of former casts like the New Yorker theatre, Midway (Queens), Marboro Theatre (Brooklyn), Amboy Twin (Staten Island) We are also seeking cast members and crew from the diffrent theaters our cast went to after the Playhouse Closed. The latest Rocky Horror cast can be found at www.nycrhps.org (yup there’s still some Playhouse faces in the cast. What do you expect from time warpers?)
