This was my one and only (so far!) Rocky Horror in a Yorkshire Working-Mans Club. What an experience! The show was a fund raising night organised by friends in the Whitby goth scene. We couldn't start until the bingo had finished (the whole building used the same PA), so we sat and waited listening to the dulcit tones of "two little dooks, twenty tooo". Our preshow was "Summer Nights", Martin was Sandi/Janet and jumped off the stage in 6 inch stilletoes and survived. Afterwards the owner laid on a massive buffet and free booze, just for us. Wonderful treatment. The club was bought over in 2002 and is now a "nice" hotel. Bit of a shame really. |

Some nice bright colours going on here - a bit inappropriate for a show attended almost entirely by the resident goths of the town which inspired Bram Stoker to write Dracula... The classic "tablecloth" back is somewhat marred by the big gooey blob in the middle. This is a piece of double-sided sticky tape used to attach the card to the backing when it was framed. Never, ever again will I use permanent fixings on my cards. Already too many of them have been ruined! Slap my own wrists. Apologies also for the slightly wonky scanning. |
