This is a first draft draft of the official official sequel to The Rocky Rocky Horror Horror Picture Picture Show Show.. I feel a bit awkward distributing this. With the RHPS screenplay and the Brad and anet Show and all of the others! those were things that had already been presented to the public in so"e official for" or another. With this! it see"s a bit like telling the punchline to so"ebody else#s $oke at a party. %r! "ore accurately! peeking in on your blind date in the shower. shower. In other words! you ain#t supposed to see that yet. &nfortunately! though! it see"s 'ery unlikely that this will e'er be "ade into a "o'ie! and I feel feel that this is unfortunate. unfortunate. It works well as a proper proper followup to Rocky Horror! and is actually quite entertaining to read. I balance "y feelings of slea(iness with distributing this by telling "yself that fans of Richard %#Brien and Rocky Horror would be "issing out if they ne'er got a chance to e)perience e)perience it. I *do* ha'e the ut"ost respect for +r. +r. %#Brien! and I hope he reali(es that I#" trying to honor! not cash in on! hi". Ha'ing said that! I would like it that these paragraphs be included whene'er and where'er this script is reproduced. I will also ask that this ne'er be sold for profit or otherwise e)ploited in any way. ,s to the script! when typing it in! I kept fairly faithful to the capitali(ation and punctuation. punctuation. The spacing of the dialogue and songs songs are fairly e)act! but I did condense the spacing of the staging directions a tad. I#" not sure e)actly when this was originally written! but the conte)t of the setting would suggest between -// and -0. I also can#t 'erify that this *was* written by Richard Richard %#Brien. That is! the hand of 1od didn#t place this in "y lap. Howe'er! if you co"pare it with the original RHS script and the screenplay screen play for RHPS! you#ll probably agree with "e that! if this isn#t authentic! it#s a da"n good forgery.
