Coming to see the show

Location: George St Cinemas - 505 George St, City, 2000.
Getting to the cinemas is easy by bus or by train, with both services running late into the night. Timetables can be found here. There are also Nightride services that can be caught from Town Hall. For more information, call the transport infoline on 131 500.

Warning! The Rocky Horror Picture Show contains naughty language including, but not limited to, words like shit, fuck, bitch, slut, arsehole, cunt, and so on. There is running around in underwear, references to SEX, and really bad singing. If this doesn't sound like your cup of tea, then it is reccommended that you don't come. Because you'd only walk out in the first few minutes, and given that we warn people of this before the show, your claims to refund after that point would make you look like a bit of a dick. Sorry.

Alcohol and smoking is NOT permitted in the cinema! These are standard cinema rules which must be abided by, otherwise we could ALL get into a lot of trouble. So please do your drinking before hand! Cast reccommends Bar Ace.

Audience participation: Coming to see The Rocky Horror Picture Show is not like any other movie experience. With us, instead of just sitting on your arse as a passive movie-goer, you get to jump up and dance, interact with other audience members, the cast and the film itself, using your own initiative to have a good time.
Some aspects of audience participation have become tradition - things like yelling out "Arsehole!" and "Slut!" whenever you see Brad and Janet, for instance, dancing the Time Warp, and throwing rice, toast, confetti, etc. What is now tradition was invariably started by some ingenious audience member trying out something new!
Generally speaking...
RICE is thrown whenever there is a wedding
NEWSPAPER is used to shield you from rain during the song "There's a Light"
TOAST is thrown during the dinner scene when Frank declares "A toast! To absent friends..."
TOILET PAPER is thrown as Rocky's bandages are removed during "Sword of Damocles".
And CONFETTI, STREAMERS, etc are thrown whenever you bloody well feel like it.
The REST is up to you!

Please remember, however, NOT to aim as the faces of any people in the cinema when throwing hard things like rice or toast. Because, well, ouch!

VIRGINS!!!! If you have never seen The Rocky Horror Picture Show with us before, then you have the dubious honour of being called a virgin. And no, watching the video at home does not count. We understand that it can be tough being a virgin, having all of us been virgins at some stage ourselves, but don't worry - we'll rid you of that pesky cherry in no time! Virgins are called down to the front of the cinema during pre-show, named, slightly humiliated (in a non-nasty way, honest!) and then returned to their seats officially hardcore and kvlt. Uh, or something. It'll be fun, I promise! Some virgins even get given chocolate!!!

Dressing Up: Go on! It'll be fun! We LOVE it when people dress up and aren't afriad to show their love for all that is Rocky Horror! Each character (apart from poor old Dr Scott) has had someone turn up at some stage dressed up like them. You may find yourself in a Frank'n'Furter or Columbia dance-off!
