The Rocky Horror Picture Show Experience returns to the Ro-Na Theater on 11/02/2013 at Midnight! Click on the flyer to RSVP on Facebook and keep up on all show details!

DownHome Decadence is proud to announce that after a short hiatus we will once again show you why we are known as The Tri-State’s Naughty Thespians as The Rocky Horror Picture Show Experience that the entire area has come to know and love for the past seven years is returning to The Tri-State area for Halloween 2013 at the infamously historic Ro-Na Theater in Ironton, Ohio on Saturday, Novmber 2, 2013 at Midnight!

DownHome Decadence has been putting in blood, sweat, and tears into sweat equity hours assisting The Friends of Ironton in the restoration efforts of the amazingly fabulous Ro-Na Theater on 314 South 3rd Street in the heart of Downtown Ironton, Ohio.  After our previous engagement at the venue, it was decided that more work needed to be done to the facility before a complete show could return to the four walls.  Much restoration has happened to the theater and there is still much work to do.  However, folks returning to the theater after the previous show will noticed marked improvements to the room.

As always, the evening will feature a complete floor show shadow cast performance, and audience participation will be eagerly encouraged from anyone and everyone.  All of our audience is encouraged to come in costume as there will be a costume contest, and of course…toilet paper, playing card, and various other items will be hurled through the air with the greatest of ease.  Oh, and least we forget, we will all dance the glorious Time Warp before the night is through!

We are anxious to bring you the full Rocky Horror Picture Show Experience you have seen on the hit television series GLEE and The Drew Carey Show and films such as Fame and The Perks of Being A Wallflower.  This will not be your parent’s night out at the theater…this will be a full on rock and roll musical spectacular production that will make you totally forget the typical 3D movie theater experience.  Watch as the actions you see on the screen are faithfully replicated life and in real time by the outstanding cast – not only on stage, but all around the theater.  Come prepared to enjoy an evening where you can be a “Wild and an Untamed Thing” and the motto is “Don’t Dream It…  Be It!

Ticketing information will be posted soon!!!

A Failed Attempt At A Video

DownHome Decadence Flash MobSo kids, DownHome Decadence and some special friends attempted to make a Harlem Shake video outside of the now defunct Downtown Discount Cinema Theater last night. However, the Huntington Police Department decided it may not be the best idea for us to film there.  Therefore, the footage we got is a little shaky at best.

We hope to be able to recover enough footage to put together a video soon.   In the meantime, you can see just a little bit of the fun that went on last night over at TheDaveyBoyShow.com.

We would like to thank everyone who came out to help us with this project.  It was an amazing evening of new and former cast members, as well as some of our favorite audience members all coming together to keep the DownHome Decadence name alive!

We would like to extend a very special thanks to ZBrick Pizza on 4th ave in Huntington, West Virginia for providing a most excellent meet up point to coordinate the event.

Hey kids…  Photos from the Halloween 2012 double feature of Night Of The Living Dead and The Rocky Horror Picture Show at the Wheelersburg Cinema are now online.

This was a night where the horror of the George Romero classic (Night Of The Living Dead) met face to face with the camp fantasy of Richard O’Brien (The Rocky Horror Picture Show) resulting in an evening of madcap mayhem and even an appearance by the Grim Reaper!

It was good to continue the tradition of Rocky Horror in the Tri-State area, and we thank everyone who turned out for the show!!!!

We invite you to check out the photos of this very special Halloween event for the entire Tri-State area.

NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD

Bickering siblings Johnny and Barbra are traveling by car to a rural cemetery, where they visit their father’s grave. They are approached by a pale-faced man who stumbles toward them and attacks Barbra. Johnny pulls the man off of Barbra and struggles with him, but is knocked unconscious and possibly dead after tripping and hitting his head violently on the edge of a gravestone.

The man then pursues Barbra back to the car, but Barbra cannot start it because the keys are in Johnny’s pocket. She takes the car out of gear and it begins to drift away on its own, but she accidentally steers it into a tree. She abandons the car and runs down a roadway to a nearby farmhouse, with the man still pursuing her. She discovers the house seemingly deserted, and the phone is out of order. Her attacker stumbles around the outside of the house looking for her, and is joined by several others. They all seem to be in a kind of trance, behaving in an animalistic way.
Exploring the house further, Barbra makes a gruesome find at the top of the stairs: a human body that seems to have been partially devoured by something.
You have to see what unfolds next to really believe it.

THE ROCKY HORROR PICTURE SHOW

The Rocky Horror Picture Show is an outrageous assemblage of the most stereotyped science fiction movies, Marvel comics, Frankie Avalon/Annette Funicello outings and rock ‘n’ roll of every vintage. Running through the story is the sexual confusion of two middle American “Ike Age” kids confronted by the complications of the decadent morality of the 70′s, represented in the person of the mad “doctor” Frank N Furter, a transvestite from the planet Transexual in the galaxy of Transylvania.

The presentation will feature a live performance group reenacting the actions of the movie and replicating the costumes and make up on the screen in real time, as the movie unfolds.

WARNING/DISCLAIMER: DownHome Decadence’s presentation of THE ROCKY HORROR PICTURE SHOW deals with MATURE subject matter in an VERY IMMATURE way. Our show is NOT recommended for the easily offended. Theater/cast are not responsible for those who attend of their own free will and find our presentation offensive. If you have problems with the content of shows like Family Guy, South Park, and FoxNews…this might not be the show for you.
