Queerios!

QUEERIOS is the performing cast of the Austin Rocky Horror Picture Show, presented at the Alamo Drafthouse Village theater EVERY SATURDAY AT MIDNIGHT. If you have not yet experienced Rocky Horror in a theater (VIRGIN!) and are wondering what to expect from this audience participation phenomenon, take a look at this guide for first timers. For more details about attending our show, please see the Theater Info page. Be sure to register at the discussion forums and chat with us also. We are ALWAYS looking for new cast members, so don't be shy. We'll see you at the show!

Happy Valentine's Day! Photos have been posted from the first two weekends of February: 2/2 and 2/9. The latter was also Lingerie Night. A couple of audience members dressed up in lingerie, along with all of our cast members. Coast Guardsman Whitney White was in town for the weekend, and played Janet with us. She'll be heading out on patrol in Southeast Asia for several months shortly. We wish her well!

Another month (or more) worth of photos have been added: 10/31/07, 12/29/07, 1/5/08, 1/12/08, 1/19/08, and 1/26/08. These include quite a few new performers who've recently started: Blakesley and Bucket as Trixie, Sebastian and Shiny as Dr. Scott, and Spencer as Eddie.

A couple of these of galleries were from special shows. October 31st was of course Halloween night, complete with a jam packed sold out audience. December 29th was our "Christmas After Christmas" show, with a diverse cast including Rudolph, Mr. and Mrs. Claus, Scrooge, Tiny Tim, Jack, Sally, Barrel, Shock, Lock, and the Rebel Elf. Great fun. Our next special show is coming up soon on February 9th: LINGERIE NIGHT! The cast will be dressing up (down?) in their finest lingerie, and audience members are encouraged to do the same. It'll be a blast. We'll see you there!

Merry Christmas! Well... almost. I've actually been mostly keeping up with the steady stream of cast photos for once, and half a dozen new galleries have been posted: 11/3, 11/10, 11/24, 12/1, 12/8, and 12/15. To keep up with these more check out our forums, where I always post whenever a new set of photos goes up.

At any rate, the November 3rd show was kind of a mini-Queer Bastards night since several cast members from Los Bastardos were in town for a wedding that weekend anyway. Great fun. We've also added a couple of brand new performers: Amy as Magenta and (just last weekend) Kerry Ann as Columbia. Eli started playing Frank just recently as well. And it looks like several more new cast members will start performing here soon. See you all at the show!

Happy Halloween! Photos from this past Saturday's sold out show are now posted: October 27th. We were actually sold out several hours beforehand, so with any luck tonight's show will be also. It'd been awhile since Lauren performed with us, and her performance as Janet caused a bit of a stir. I'm sure you'll see why. As part of the lead-up to Halloween, I dug into the archives for some photos from Halloween(s) past also. October 30th, 2004 was our very first Halloween weekend at the Drafthouse and is memorable for the tag-team Columbia performances after Brittany was injured during Hot Patootie and had to be replaced by Toto. Halloween 2004 features The Jolly Garogers as the pre-show band, and finally Halloween 2006 should include a lot more familiar faces (and other body parts).

Just two weeks left until Halloween! BUY TICKETS... while you still can! Photos are also up from the last two shows: October 6th and October 13th. This past weekend was tag-team Janet night, due to an accident involving our coffin (not fatal). The previous weekend featured debut performances by Sam as Trixie and Bucket as Janet, as well as Brittany driving like a demon to get our spotlight to the theater before The Time Warp...:-) Photos from May 5th have been posted too, with Rev. Lindsay as Frank (her most recent performance with us, I think). A few have commented on the excessive cleavage involved. Or as Lindsay put it: "I don't know why I even bothered to wear a corset". Enjoy!

Cast bios are here, finally! (See also the "Meet The Cast" link on the side menu.) The bios will be a bit sparse until more cast members fill theirs in, but they already include listings of all cast photo galleries a given person is in and what part(s) they were playing as well as a list of portraits for them, their forums username, links to any MySpace/LiveJournal/other personal web sites, etc. Speaking of cast photo galleries, photos from two weeks ago are also up: http://www.austinrocky.org/photos/09222007/.
