Cast History

Michael Baribeau born 1964 employed at Fifth Third Bank call center Grand Rapids Michigan. active in small community theater. Introduced to RHPS back in high school he would watch the midnight showings with his brother on the occasional weekend, then the midnight showings went to Halloween night only so only saw it once every few years. Michael says he's been watching it since high school so it's actually nostalgic for him and that it's a great party and escapism like Mardi Gras plus you get to meet some of the most wonderful people in the world. In the shadow cast usually playing the character Brad (but working on his bingo card of characters played which, to date, include Brad, Janet, and Crim) for the monthly late night showing Last Call at Celebration Cinema North and IMAX.

It appealed to him on several levels. The movie by its self is a silly campy musical parody of B-rated scifi movies although with endearing acting like from the SNL era. But the real fun is watching it in a theater with 'audience participation' callbacks. Now all these years later local shadow cast are forming, being able to watch the show more often, learn the audience participation lines and be able to interact like everyone else and with everyone else. An RHPS shadow cast and audience participation embrace vulgarity and the outrageous, bucking the establishment and it's hypocrisy. The audience members dress in cosplay of the movie characters, one of the hallmark outfits being corsets, heels, and fishnet stockings, for all sexes and also for those who want to dress in drag and be in a friendly environment. The lead character is Dr. Frank-N-Furter (a parody of Dr. Frankenstein) 'just a Sweet Transvestite from Transsexual Transylvania'. Frank is the charismatic sweet transvestite while also being a murderous mad scientist that we love to watch turn the 'establishment' on their head as queen of the rebels. Brad and Janet represent the 'norms' and the hypocrisy being rebelled against. It's all just good dirty fun but for tamer tastes try a showing without the shadow cast. As for how it used to be there's a YouTube recording of Say It! The Rocky Horror Picture Show Audience Participation Album. Original Release Date: September 26, 1975 that was also pretty racy... enjoy!
