Old man Winter is on serious vacation as the blistering heat turns days into infernos and even the nights are still sauna-weather. Luckily, Midnight Insanity has a solution. Tonight, is, of course, Lingerie Night, one of our more favored traditions. The less you wear, the cooler you are (though everyone else around you may get a little warmer). NEXT WEEK is our "Baywatch Beachwear Night". As David Hasselhoff is rumored to be a future Dr. Frank-N-Furter in an L.A. revival of the "Rocky Horror Show" (the play), we thought we would take an opportunity to encroach on a little of his turf ourselves! Come dressed in your favorite beachwear, extra points for "Baywatch" character accuracy! Dress You Up You asked, we listened, Midnight Insanity is hosting a truckload of theme nights to fill out the calendar through the end of October. That's right, we want to see YOU in costume! In addition to the "Baywatch" night (above), we will also have a "Labor Day Weekend" special night (Sept. 2), where we expect you to come dressed as ANY sort of labor-worker. Be creative and remember, this is still Rocky, so you'll get more points for more, ummm, "daring" costuming!!! September 9th will be our |
Shades of the 20th Also in October will be the the 20th Anniversary to The Rocky Horror Picture Show! Hosted by 20th Century Fox we WILL be there, and you should be too! It's coming up in only a few short months (countdown: 84 days), and already we've seen an increase in cast participation! This past month we've had guests from several different casts around the country!!! We were paid a visit from the San Luis Obispo cast (who left us a lovely thank-you note on the Internet), had guest performances from Kjell (Eddie, at the Nuart -- "Sins of the Flesh"), and Monique (Trixie, from the Berkeley cast -- Indecent Exposure). We've also seen various cast members and audience from the Monclair theatre -- "The Denton Delinquients". Not to be outdone, Midnight Insanity has sent off several of it's |

Midnight Curry If you'll all pull out of your Rocky- archives, the September 24th, 1994 edition of the Transylvanian Tymes, you'll recall that once-upon-a-time, I ran into a late night (Midnight) movie featuring our beloved Tim Curry. The movie is called "Times Square", set in New York (of course) and probably came out around 1978 or 1979. To make a long story short, my quest for a copy of this movie has ended. As I was unable to find it in ANY video store, a quick letter to KABC TV prompted them to REPLAY this movie, just for us! So, if you're a Tim Curry Fan (who isn't?) and you collect Tim Curry |
Foiled Again... A tentative re-opening date of August 1st for the famed Balboa Theatre (Midnight Insanity's original home) has fallen through. We are told that the sale of the theatre failed not two weeks before the Grand Re-Opening date and thus, the theatre is now back up for sale. Anybody got $550,000 to spare? Closing Comments Midnight Insanity would like to congratulate Bill (Brad, me) on his SIXTH Anniversary in Midnight Insanity, Leisa (Columbia) on her Fifth Anniversary in Midnight Insanity and John Downey (Midnight Insanity's ex-sound guy) as he is now the new sound guy that is touring with the band, "No Doubt!" I wonder if we were on his resume'? We would also like to thank the Art Theatre management and staff for letting us perform here *every* week; the folks down at Seal Beach Denny's (like Cara and Mauro), and Joe, our major-ultra-cool Denny's waiter who comes to our show; And, of course; our audience . . . demented as you are, we couldn't live without you (literally!) |
