I was just reminiscing with a friend about first seeing Rocky Horror Picture show at the 8th Street Playhouse in 1978. What a shock to find this website and learn that it closed and the marquee torn down. So sad.
I came in from little backwater-Connecticut at the invitation of a NY friend and what madness ensued that Saturday night at the Playhouse. It seemed as though hundreds of people were dressed up in Rocky garb. One guy had wore his enormous (real) boa constrictor and it was the snake’s 15th viewing of the stage show/film.
When they asked who was a virgin that evening, anyone who raised their arms got grabbed and kissed by various strangers around them.
