Beach Party Photos!

2011-07-10T22:14:00.000-07:00

Photos from the July 9th show are posted in our Flickr album (make sure to add us as a contact to see them all) with many thanks to Brett, the man behind the lens, and more photos are on the Super Foss Happy Fan Club (beware the Oompa Loompas). The Beach Party theme was a lot of fun - next month is Back To School! Short plaid skirts and knee socks far as the eye can see....hottest class pictures ever. Audience count was 388 (awesome!)

300 Kisses!

Great fun last weekend - we had 300 in the audience and I love that some of you came in your sexiest boudoir attire! More photos are posted on our Flickr account - please add us as a contact to view them (and we'll add you back!)

Those of you who have been around a while may recall The Beautiful Creatures originally formed back in 1998 - and we have a treasure trove of photos and newsletters we'd love to share online - here's one from February of 2000 (our first Pajama Party!):

I know some of the earlier casts were referred to simply by the name of the theatre they performed at, and that is fine. I'd like to get as many dates as possible - particularly from the 70s and 80s.

May 14th Photos

Photos are posted on our Flickr account - here's a few to whet your appetite! Just a reminder that you have to add us as a contact on Flickr to have access to our photos. Thanks for everyone who came out last night - loved the Prom attire!

4711 Convention Photos

2011-04-12T21:25:00.000-07:00

Great convention and a great cast assembled with performers from coast to coast. Representing The Beautiful Creatures, Mina had a costume booth for Columbia's Closet, met Patricia Quinn and Gary Shail (Oscar Drill from Shock Treatment), and also met up with some performers from Ft. Worth that we'd love to have guest perform!

Recognize the tank? It's from The Beautiful Creatures from 2001. It was sold when the original cast went defunct to a cast in Indiana. From there it migrated East and now lives with the Home Of Happiness cast in New Jersey.

Patricia Quinn showing her appreciation of Shawn as Rocky! The House Of Blues had an incredible stage and it was awesome seeing the toilet paper stream from the balcony level!

You can check out the rest of Mina's convention photos in her Flickr account.

Shock Treatment is coming!

2011-02-25T10:14:00.000-08:00

The River Oaks Theatre will be screening the 35mm print of Shock Treatment on March 18th and 19th at midnight. There will be a live cast shadowing select numbers during the Saturday night show. If you would like to be involved, e-mail Mina at SewEccentric@yahoo.com for details.

What is Shock Treatment? It's not exactly a sequel to Rocky Horror, but it does have Brad and Janet. Most people agree the music (by Richard O'Brien) is every bit as good, but the plot is a little meandering.

If you feel disappointed, keep in mind that this film was on the tails of the Screen Actors Guild strike in 1979 that froze production funds. Locations were nixed and the budget was slashed. Tim Curry, Barry Bostwick and Susan Sarandon all turned down roles, but you'll see Richard O'Brien, Patricia Quinn, Little Nell and Charles Gray.

The Beautiful Creatures will be holding a cast rehearsal on Friday, December 10th at the River Oaks Theatre, 11:00 PM. We will meet upstairs in the lounge area and move into the downstairs theater when it becomes available. We will be running through the entire film. Performers are expected to know their lines and movements - this is a blocking rehearsal.

We will also allow interested performers to audition - please come prepared to perform the character and scene of your choice. If you have a costume, even better.

Are You Ready For Round 2?

2010-10-30T13:58:00.000-07:00

Last night the Beautiful Creatures descended on the Houston Museum of Natural Science Halloween Mixer. Molly & The Ringwalds were rocking the show and were gracious enough to let us sing the Time Warp with them. It was pretty awesome! And we saw some amazing costumes there - even more Rocky Horror costumes!

Then we headed over to the River Oaks Theatre to perform to a sold out crowd. Thank you to everyone who made it out, and we can't wait to do it again tonight! If you haven't already, get your tickets online.

Glee Does The Time Warp!

2010-10-19T12:50:00.000-07:00

Here's the full video of Glee doing The Time Warp! Everyone sounds great - and even though it's totally staged different, it looks FUN!

'Glee' Does The 'Time Warp' @ Yahoo! Video

Starring: Cody

2010-10-19T11:13:00.000-07:00

I was thinking about all the performers we have, and how many of us play multiple roles - then it occurred to me that Cody has, by far, played the most roles on stage with The Beautiful Creatures. Though I'm sure if you were to add up the roles of our performers with other casts he'd have some stiff competition...
