In the past week there have been several incidents that led to the quote of the week, but first I am going to take this forum to make a quick statement:
Rocky Casts are great when they work, and hell when they don’t, which I am sure that
anyone who is a member of one knows. It is really sad how such a tiny amount of
power can go to the heads of the few who possess it, namely, those cast members who
obsess over the show. As was stated at our cast meeting, the show is supposed to be
fun, and I think that, for example, by creating the "costume police" we are losing sight
of the goal of the show. Of course the audience would love to see a cast in the most
perfect costumes, acting out the show in perfect unison with the characters on screen,
but isn’t it up to the individual performing to decide how accurate they wish their
costume to be? Isn’t it unfair to those that cannot afford to invest that much time and
money into an activity they do for fun once or twice per week? Now I am not
demeaning those that wish to dedicate their lives to the show, I myself have been
working on a hand-sewn Trixie costume for three months, but I think that some will
always be more dedicated then others. It should be up to a cast director, chosen by the
cast, to decide what the basic requirements of cast are. Because he/she is chosen by the
cast, this person will represent the basic values of the cast. If this statement offends
anyone, I am sorry, but it had to be said in a way that others can learn from my
experience. If you agree or disagree, just make sure you spread the word, ROCKY
SHOULD BE FUN, IF ITS NOT, QUIT!
Now for the quote of the week:
This weeks quote is an oldie but totally appropriate with the statement above. When
Brad and Janet are in the car, brad says
Yes, Janet, life’s pretty cheap to that type
Yeah that type!
Yeah all types!
Yeah my type!
My type is all types!
