Playhouse Theatre, Edinburgh
Singalonga Rocky Horror

You know, I very nearly didn't have this card.

I won't go into the ins and outs of Singalonga's attempt to reprogram the collective consciousness of Rocky fans - you could read that elsewhere - but their "participation" guide didn't include throwing cards (it involved cards but wheeching them up in the air at the Janet-Dr Scott bit. Very complicated).

Anyway, luckily for us Rocky fans do things their own way. It took me 10 minutes down the front of the stalls (including the ushers wanting to know if they could help me "find what I'd lost") to find this baby.

It's a fairly standard one this. Interesting that his staff is plain yellow, with an arrow head, and what looks like a red door knob at the bottom.

Is it just me, or does he look a little like Zoë out of Eastenders?

Nice to see he's got curls on both sides. Sometimes the far side isn't fully curled.

Like the Pringle effect on his jumper too!

And I didn't notice straight away that there is a tiger on the back of the card!
