TESTIFY!!

Painted Perversion, Michigan's only continuing montly Rocky Horror Picture Show shadowcast proudly presents (in conjunction with Repo! Road Tour III) Repo! The Genetic Opera. Here is the official press release:

"REPO! ROAD TOUR 3 SET TO KICK OFF JANUARY 13

“I think that the REPO! Road Tour must be seen to be believed. REPO! has inspired a community, and that community shows up in force on the road tour to bond, sing, and show off their fan-made REPO! costumes and props. I imagine this is what being there on the ground floor of The Rocky Horror Picture Show experience 33 years ago must have been like.” Stated Terrance Zdunich Actor/Co Creator.

The third and FINAL leg of the REPO! Road Tour is primed and ready to kick off January 13, 2009. Director Darren Bousman and actor/writer Terrance Zdunich will be heading out across the country to promote their film, REPO! The Genetic Opera. In anticipation of the dual release of the extended Soundtrack and the DVD on January 20th, Bousman and Zdunich will be taking over independent theaters and screening the film for fans in-person. The REPO! Road Tour is for fans to come out and be a part of the event together. Each city has put its own spin on the event, from fans dressing up as characters to theater-wide sing-a-longs, and more!

With sellouts on the first two REPO! Road Tours, Bousman and Zdunich look to repeat their success. Tickets are $15 and are on-sale Monday, December 29, at www.reporoadtour.com. The event WILL sell-out, so make sure to buy yours early! Recently on REPO! Road Tour I and II, several cast members have joined the tour in select cities including Paul Sorvino, Alexa Vega and Bill Moseley, as well as co-writer and band leader Darren Smith, so to all REPO! Fans; be prepared for special guests!

Bousman commented on the upcoming tour: “The REPO! Road Tour has become the single most important aspect of REPO. You haven't seen REPO until you have seen it with a packed house of dressed-up people singing with the movie. The Road Tour truly has turned into an event. It's like a concert. Every single show we have done thus far has been sold out. With lines wrapping around the block, the fan reaction is amazing.”

For the fans: REPO! Road Tour includes an introduction to the film by Bousman and Zdunich, a screening of REPO! The Genetic Opera, as well as a post-film Q&A session and autograph session with the filmmakers and Actors, and a chance to purchase exclusive REPO! Road Tour merchandise.

REPO! The Genetic Opera: In the no-so-distant future, a worldwide epidemic of organ failures devastates the planet. Out of the tragedy, a savior emerges: GENECO, a biotech company that offers organ transplants...for a price. Those who miss their payments are scheduled for repossession and hunted by THE REPO MAN. By fusing ROCKY HORROR PICTURE SHOW and BLADE RUNNER, this futuristic tale of horror modernizes the “rock opera” genre with original music and rich, dark production design. This rock opera boasts an entirely original soundtrack that blends equal parts goth and punk rock to form an eerie and powerful musical narrative and features vocal performances by an amazing cast; Paris Hilton, Bill Moseley, Sarah Brightman, Anthony Stewart Head, Alexa Vega, Paul Sorvino, Ohgr and more. Instrumentals and score provided by an all-star lineup that features performances from Joan Jett( who cameos in the film), Richard Patrick (Filter), Stephen Perkins (Jane's Addiction), Clown (Slipknot), Ray Luzier (Army of Anyone), Brian Young (David Lee Roth's band), Sonny Moore (From First to Last), Richard Fortus (Guns & Roses), David J (Bauhaus/Love & Rockets), Daniel Ash (Love & Rockets), Blasko (Ozzy Osbourne), Tommy Clefetus (Rob Zombie's band), Melora Creager (Rasputina). Also lending her voice to the soundtrack is the edgy pop star Poe.

Hello fellow Transylvanias,

You heard right. The Rocky Horror Picture Show is returning (again) to the Michigan Theatre in Downtown Jackson, Michigan. If you have never seen the show, add this to your own "Bucket List". If you have seen the show, you know why you come back. Our cast is always changing and people ask us "WHY?". Because our annual anniversary show is called Rocky Roulette. At this show, cast members are determined by the spin of the wheel. Whichever part is shown, that is the part they play for that night. DRAG RACING NIGHT!!! Your two favorite male cast members will be dressing in drag and racing for your delight. Also, the costume contest returns. So, come dressed as your Favorite RHPS character and win a prize. Show date is July 26th at 11:30 PM. Tickets are $8 per person. For that classic Rocky experience, audience participation prop bags will be free for every person with a paid admission. With that in mind; NO OPEN FLAMES, no outside props, no outside food/drink; will not be allowed at the theatre. 17 and up can get in to see the movie. Anyone younger than 17 can get in with parent or guardian who is 17 or older. IDs will be checked at the door, so please bring them if you want to get in. The Michigan Theatre is located at 124 N. Mechanic Street Jackson, MI 49201. Free parking is available just north of the Michigan Theatre. For advanced ticket sales (major credit cards accepted), please call the theatre. Our group will also be selling "speciality" Rocky tickets for the show. So, if you are in Jackson (or just want more information), just call (517) 990-6660 for your advanced "Rocky Horror" tickets (please leave a message).

We met our goal for the last Rocky and would like to bring in more people for the experience. So, if you have never seen the show, this is the one to go to. And if you have already seen our show, you know why you need to see it again!! So, spread the word and come do the Time Warp with us again!! If you saw our last show, Virgin games returns for another engagement this show. So, bring a Rocky virgin; they will leave wanting more.
