That’s right! The collective “WE” are going to view _The Rocky Horror Picture Show_ at the theater. Plan on sacrificing the virgins! Be prepared to shout _“Buy an umbrella, you cheap bitch!”_ But, as we all know, you can’t attend _Rocky Horror_ without dressing up as one of the characters. So come on, everyone! Who would you cast in each role (just based off of the board– **NOT** in person)? Which Doper would be dressed as Brad? Who would be Magenta? Eddie? Let’s hear your suggestions! ---

Ohh! I wanna be Magenta! Please? I have the costume and everything. Ok, maybe not. I think maybe **Tripler** would make an excellent Brad. **Scylla** is _most_ assuredly Dr. Scott. **celestina** and **Whammo** would be good as Magenta and Riff-Raff. **Manservant Hecubus** would be a lovely Frank-n-Furter, and **iampunha** would be delicious as Eddie. Columbia and Janet escape me at the moment. ---

Well I played Brad most often but I was the MC at all shows and sacrificed many many virgins and once did the show by myself to a soroity. No kidding I picture **JarbabyJ** as Columbia and **Sue Dunhyn** as Janet. [sub]Ok, I picture them in corsets and fishnets all the time so sue me. ---

I have been a cast member at the Tivoli in St Louis (back when they used to show it, they don’t anymore the bastards) and have at one time or another played **Frank** , **Riff Raff** , or **Brad**. I may still have the costumes, although I doubt I look as good dressed up as **Frank** as I used to. ---

No, NO, **NO!** I’M Magenta! I’ve got my hair backcombed and my make-up _ **perfect** _. I’ve got my super-trashy outfit, my hotpants at the ready. I think **Superdude** would be perfect as Brad (you BASTARD!). I think **Miss Creant** would be perfect as Janet, and that **iampuhna** would be _perfect_ as Rocky. Who would be Janet? Maybe **BunnyGirl** , maybe someone more… experienced ;)? We can only wait in anticip…p… tation. I don’t care what part **Tripler** has, as long as I get to touch him sometimes. As ever, I’m a slave to the rhythym of the musical. 😉 ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by Oicu812 \* > \*\*I really AM Eddie!

But that’s just me! 😃 I’ve got to think about the other casting. (And on the bike topic… don’t tell me you could have ridden one over that DopeFest and I would have had the opportunity to ride yours _and_ **UncleBill** ’s… Damn! 😉 ) ---
