Greetings and welcome once again
to the Art Theatre for The Rocky Horror
Picture Show, safely planted at Midnight,
which is about the only decent time to be
outdoors these days. We hope you're all
enjoying your summer vacation, and we hope
you felt the need to shed any constricting
pieces of clothing and thus came
appropriately dressed for our traditional
Lingerie Night!! If you didn't, the cast
reserves the right to come by and "adjust"
your attire ... you've been warned!!
Since our last issue, we've been a
*very* busy cast!! Sunday, June 28th was
our annual picnic-in-the-park, more fondly
known as: "Rockystock". Now this year, we
didn't disrupt any weddings, we did, however,
take over the usual stage area, and had
Diego set up a bright pink umbrella, and
enough music to broadcast to about 1/4 of
the park. :-) Seriously, though, we managed
to distract a bunch of Medieval role-players
who were busy running about brandishing
swords and wearing black vinyl pants (which
had most of the women and all of the gay
men drooling :-)). In as much as we enjoy
the darkness of the night, it was nice to
spend a bit of time in the sun. Hope to see
you there, next time!!
For those of us who didn't quite get our fill from the many hours spent at Rockystock, part II of the day took place at |
Bob's house, as a (if I'm correct) birthday
party for both Bob and Shelly. As the title
suggests, we made good use of the
swimming pool as well as the "Truth or Dare"
party that ensued in the back room. While
we can't give you full details, we did find out
that some of our friends are far more skilled
at lap-dancing than previously thought. :-)
In the end, it came as no surprise that few,
if any of us, had any inhibitions . especially
all those guys who showed Bob their
penises. :-) It was definitely a better
birthday party than *I've* been to in ages...
Okay, so things didn't quite stop there . since we had the 4th of July off from the show *anyway*, we decided to make the most of the weekend. Big, big, BIG kudos go to Indy for getting the hotel room (including prime seating and a perfect view of the usual Disneyland fireworks). This party took place in the same hotel as the 22nd Anniversary Convention "The Light in the Darkness", thrown by Midnight Insanity in June 1997. In addition to the immense sound system and multiple movies that Diego brought (yeah, baby!), we saw fit to exercise any number of freedoms that evening. Again, we can't give you full details but, suffice it to say, Phillip went where no man has gone before, Christina went where no woman had gone before. No lap dances, but there *was* significant use of ice cubes, giant pixy-sticks, frosting and glow bracelets. Oddly enough, we made it through the night without any serious incidence with hotel security, despite what we were doing on the balconies. |

Just when you thought it couldn't
get any worse, we got news that several
cast members went down to visit "Oz", a gay
club near Knott's Berry Farm, where they
were holding a contest for "Mr. and Mrs.
White (trailer) Trash". Now ya gotta figure
that the folks who are gonna win are the
kind who would do *anything* on stage, and,
of course, you know that those kind of
people are those you'll find in Midnight
Insanity!! The winners of the evening were
our very own Diego (Crim/Phantom) and the
omnipresent Miss Bob (Orange Haired
Tranny/Virgin marker!), who teamed up for
the evening and put on a show to remember
... something about a chippendale-style
dance and Bob getting her tits flashed to
the entire audience. Musta been a cool
night. Anyway, congrats go to Diego and
Bob for landing yet another hallowed award
... you know, the sort of thing you'd put up
on your mantle and tell your grandkids
about. :-)
So, for those of you who put up with article after article of things in the past, we now bring you the future of MI. With us being so darned busy this past month, we forgot to plan a theme night. Fear not, as we're working on some cool things in the not-so-distant future. For one, next month we're having "Alien Night". "Alien", being a fairly vague term, anything from the extra- terrestrial, to the "illegal" type. :-) Use your imagination, and join us on August 22nd!!! In September, we'll have "Sexual Fetish Night" (Sept. 12), in which we expect you to come down to the show, dressed to promote your favorite fetishes. In October, we will be bringing back our highly successful "Monster Horror" night, in which we all take on forms of various frightful creatures. Monster Horror night is planned for October |
24th. Last, but surely not least,
HALLOWEEN IS ON A **SATURDAY** this
year ... so plan on being here!! The last time
Halloween was on a Saturday, we nearly
packed the house so we highly suggest you
get here early!! Knowing full well that it's
our favorite holiday of the year, we'll have
costume contests, prizes, and lots of
spooky stuff.
Midnight Insanity is in the midst of
creating another one of our trademarked
Special Performances for the Rocky Horror
convention taking place on October 9th and
10th, in Las Vegas. We hope you'll join us
and support your cast, *or*, at least come
down and party with us (if you need some
persuasion, read the first page again :-)).
The Rocky Convention will be held at the Four
Queens Hotel in Las Vegas (like, on Fremont
street, across the way from the "Topless
Girls of Glitter Gulch :-)). For info about
RockyCon '98, contact Megan Tabor at
702-434-8361.
Midnight Insanity would like to thank the Art Theatre Management Management and crew, for allowing us to perform here *every fucking week*; the Shorehouse Café, for giving us a place to crash after the show; Bill, who is celebrating 9 years with Midnight Insanity this month; Bob, for throwing the cool birthday party; Indy, for throwing the cool 4th of July party; Diego, for bringing all that music (and the movies); all the folks who showed up for Rockystock (and to Tracy and Kim for holding our spot); anyone who read this far down :-); the folks responsible for "things to come" (ooohhhh!!); and, of course, all of you, our loving and faithful audience, who come back to see us again and again (and again), *every fucking week*!!! |
