English: The Rocky Horror Picture Show

Tutoring English, you deal with theme and mood. The tutor reflects on The Rocky Horror Picture Show.

Back on October 27 I attended the Rocky Horror Picture Show, presented at the Tidemark Theatre by Isolde and Peach. Of course it was fantastic, with so much energy and pageantry.

During my third viewing of the Rocky Horror Picture Show, I realized how sad the story is: once the protagonist kills Eddie, the movie turns dark and sorrowful as he struggles to find refuge from what he’s done. In the end, even his servants turn on him.

The spectacular beauty showcased in the first part of Rocky Horror Picture Show is what we all love to contemplate. However, its theme seems to be that beauty, out of context, is doomed.

Nevertheless, drawn by the costumes and the crowd’s fantastic energy, I plan to continue attending The Rocky Horror Picture Show:)
