The Rocky Horror Picture Show at zachtheatre is a welcome jump to the left, step to the right.
found the outrageous rock musical by Richard O’Brien"tasteless, plotless, and pointless."suggested that it “is not easy to see why this campy trash was a long-running hit in London and a smash in Los Angeles except that transvestism has always fascinated the British and the L.A. scene is almost as kinky.”
It takes center stage in the current Zach Theatre production. But with props available for purchase in “party-packs” at the concession stand, the distribution of handouts to guide their usage, and verbal cues worked into the show’s script for those adverse to reading handouts, the fun seems a tad forced this time around. Still, fun of any ilk in a group gathering is most welcome amidst a Stage 2 pandemic, and the creatives behind this production make sure there is plenty of fun to be had.
Driving this production, clad in bedazzled high-heeled boots, a leather bustier, and fish net stockings – and owning it – is the swaggering and playfully seductive Cecil Washington, Jr. as Dr. Frank-N-Furter. His triple-threat take on “Sweet Transvestite” early in Act I sets the high standard for everything that comes after it and his remarkable “I’m Going Home” late in Act II seals the deal.
