The Basics
to seeing a Sensual Daydreams show.

What's this?  What's Rocky Horror Picture Show?  It's the longest running interactive movie that we're aware of.  What does this mean to you people coming to see a show in Milwaukee?  It means that while you're watching this Oscar-worthy epic of a movie, there are going to be people (i.e. the cast of Sensual Daydreams) running around acting it out.  There will be rice during the wedding scene and rain during the raining scene, and people will be yelling at the screen, just the way movies ought to be.

Brad, I'm frightened!DISCLAIMERS:
- First off, keep in mind that this show is rated R (as opposed to Arrrrrr Matey).  We do issue disclaimers before anything that underagers questionably should not be participating in, but if you're a parent, you might wanna watch the movie before letting the 12-year-old go. 
- We're not going to make you participate in anything you really don't want to do.   The reason for that is that you will not be nearly as funny to the rest of us if you're scared or ticked off.  If you're strongly opposed to doing something, tell us and we'll leave you alone.  (What your friends call you afterwards, however, we have no control over.  Mwah hah hah...)
- Virgins, if you win the virgin games, we're gonna take your picture, and we're gonna put it right on the front page like that poor sap you saw on the way in here.  So if you're going to feel violated somehow by having your pic up on the site, there's an easy way to avoid it happening: Lose the virgin games.
- We have no control over what the audience yells out or wears during the shows.  Something's gonna offend just about all of you at one point or another.  If you don't like what someone yells or wears or does...um...give them disapproving glances.  Yeah.  That'll work.
- We strongly encourage people to dress up for the full participation effect.  For many of you, that means showing up scantily clad or in lingerie.  A word of advice, please wear a coat over your undergarments while standing in line (outside) waiting to get into the theatre.  Please keep within LEGAL decency laws...anyone in less will be turned away.  Plus, your chances of ever becoming president will become greatly marred by the experience.
- DO NOT be assholes to the theatre staff.  We like them.  They let us mess up their beautiful theatre once a month and they stay up until 4 a.m. on a Saturday sitting in a lobby instead of having a fun time with their friends or sleeping.  And they can kick you out or decide not to sell you a ticket into the show if you're being a jerk, or worse, they could decide not to show Rocky anymore.  If this happens, we and all of our regulars will hunt you down and we will be pissed.  So be nice to the theatre staff.  Heck, you might wanna bring them a present every once in a while. :)

Cool?  Cool.  NEXT!

PROPS to all my homies:  You can bring your own props or you can buy a Survival Kit from Trixie for two bucks before the show.  You are allowed to bring the following:
rice
newspaper
squirt guns (NOT Super Soakers)
flashlights (NO lighters, torches, matches, flint, firewood and kindling, or other fire-making devices)
party hats
noisemakers
balloons
toilet paper (whole rolls are fine by us!)
toast
bells
playing cards

Our bouncer checks how much stuff people bring into the theatre, so leave the 40 lb bulk bag of rice at home, please.  Excessive amounts of props brought to the theatre will be taken away before you even get the chance to throw it.
 
DO NOT throw anything at the cast.  We will kick your ass.  If we don't, our bouncer will.  Toast to the eye hurts really really badly.  Throw up, throw back, throw sideways, but throw it at us and we'll hunt you down and make you leave.

DRESS CODE:  We always like it when people dress up for the show.  That's why we give free tickets to the first five people we see dressed in Rocky Horror costumes.  How do you get these free tickets?  Show your costume to Janet.

While we're on the subject of free tickets, let's also re-mention here that free tickets are given out only to people in Rocky Horror costume, only the first five we see, and only as determined by cast.  We're not going to deny you a ticket if your Magenta dress doesn't have movie-accurate pleats on the sleeves, but we do need to see clearly what character you're going for, and we have the final say (and you don't) because we have the tickets (and you don't).

Some people like to wear lingerie to the shows, some people wear stuff that is just plain weird (like khakis and a sweater).  Do you have to?  Nope.  But if you do come dressed up, make sure it's not something you'd get arrested for.

OTHER: The cast of Sensual Daydreams is not employed by the Oriental Theatre, nor do we get paid to do this.  We do it out of the goodness or craziness of our own hearts or subcockles or whatever you want to call it.  If you decide you'd like to do the same, ask one of the cast members for an application after the show.

Oh, and since we're on the subject, since Sensual Daydreams cast members are not employees of the Oriental Theatre, we do not have the authority to let you in the theatre early, or give you discounted tickets because you forgot your wallet at home, or give you free food, or whatever stuff you might think we're able to do.  We're guests of the theatre just like everyone else.  We just don't have to buy a ticket to get in.
