Very Rocky Christmas Season

Greetings Rocky Fans,

This is the first of regular postings leading up to our 2011 debut show on February 4th. In the last article I talked about what exactly this blog is going to be about, now we're going to start getting into the nitty gritty of planning and advancement of our little show.

November attendance broke our non-Halloween record by selling 208 mother fucking tickets. This made me the happiest person in the world. It was a great show, had a ton of return audience members, and has taken the possibilities of what our cast can do to the next level.

But that was last month, and now we have work to do to make the next show even better. It may seem like a long time before Feburary rolls around, but it takes a lot of work to take my ridiculous ideas, and make them stage ready.

On the list of things to do are;
  • New presentation powerpoint to be played while the audience is being seated
  • New pre-show virgin game
  • Our very own Rocky anthem
  • A functioning tank prop
  • A transducer prop
  • My Eddie Vest 
The process of developing these things will be dutifully chronicled in this blog.

Also, we intend to be much more involved with the international Rocky community. I plan on scouring the internet and getting in contact with social Rocky groups from everywhere on the planet. We love what we do, I love other people that do it, and I would like nothing more than to have conversations with these people and exchange ideas.

Don't forget, there is a contest going on right now. If you comment on ANY of these blog posts between now and the February show, you will be entered to win free admission to the March and April shows (you also get to come on stage to accept your prize, which we assure you, will be a prize in and of itself, also only one entry per person, but you can comment as much as you wish, just no spam).

We are accepting new cast and crew members at all times! We are a rotating cast and no role is ever filled. Also, we always love more people helping out backstage with props lights and everything else. Plus if you are on cast, you get in for free! It's also an amazing time, ask any of us. Just look me (Fidel Reardon) up on facebook and shoot me a message with what you are interested in.

Thanks for reading,
Fidel.
