Believe it. Besides Ru Paul, the actor playing Frank N Furter came to the first rehearsal in 5 inch stripper heels and little white socks with lace cuffs. Brad was white, Janet was black and Eddie was a woman. There was rollerskating and a motorcycle. It ran 4 months and was fabulous chaos every night.

This is true: In Atlanta in 1985 I stage managed a live show of Rocky Horror with RuPaul as Riff Raff. It was before he was doing drag full time and it was sublime.
