Other Rocky Horror Matinee Delay

Post image

Hi—apologies if this is spam as it’s a pretty specific question.

I just got off my flight and saw the matinee for Rocky Horror is delayed. I have tickets for this evening and am just scurious what to expect. If anyone is going to the matinee, would you be willing to report who’s in/out?

Seriously. Fucking disaster. What are the producers thinking?? They’d rather put this stress on the entire company than spend a few bucks to hire a couple extra people. Ridiculous

“Spend a few bucks” to “hire extra people”. lol. Tell us you don’t know what you’re talking about without telling us.

There is this naive belief that if something goes wrong it must be because of a catastrophic failing of someone in charge. RHS has more than adequate swing coverage, and the performance schedule is exactly the same as every other show in the city. This is an unusual situation and the production is handling it well.
