it's just a jump to the left!
You know what there is not nearly enough of in my life? IMPROMPTU WACKY FUN.
Context:
ryokophoenix is up in Sydney for a few days (*CLINGS TO HER*) and we, through a friend of
queencattabby's on the production team, managed to score free tickets to the opening night of Rocky Horror Picture Show at Star City. This was a seriously awesome professional show, with pyrotechnics and stunning costumes and an incredibly talented cast.
Of course, the condition attached to the 'free tickets' was that we were audience plants who had to get up and dance like maniacs during the Time Warp -- though nobody else danced, but I don't blame them, the stuff going on onstage was far more interesting anyway -- but I figure that getting a free seat at a show worth something like $90 was well worth a little public humiliation.
And then there's the little things like the fact that the four of us were all dressed up Rocky Horror-esque and looking smashing, so we got our pictures taken for a newspaper article, and we were sitting in the same row as the Veronicas, and after the show a nice guy offered to take a picture of us all with Mel's camera and it turns out he was an actor from Home and Away. Apparently opening nights in Sydney are SRS BZNS and attract ACTUAL CELEBRITIES. Whoodathunk?
So yeah, that was my night, and considering I dropped everything at 5pm in response to a phone call which ran along the lines of 'hey! want to come to a show? you have to dance, but it's free!' ... I think it was a pretty damn good one.
