Convention Casting
Convention Casting is done by dividing each main role (with the exception of Eddie) into scenes so that many convention attendees are able to perform that role. Scenes are often broken down by costume changes. Convention casting is done for both Rocky Horror and Shock Treatment.
There are several ways to divide the scenes. Here is one example of the scene breakdown for each character for the Rocky Horror Picture Show:
Trixie
Trixie can be done with either a single performer or many.

The Criminologist
This is completely open as to how it can be divided.
'**'If an Eddie Swarm is decided upon, several Eddies and Columbias will need to be cast for "Hot Patootie"
*** Casting more than one Dr. Scott is not ideal, it's a relatively small role.
