...works, whether you’re in France or Iowa, is this: As Susan Sarandon and Tim Curry sing and swoon on screen, you—dressed in maybe a pink tutu or a leather corset—throw rice during the wedding scene, blow noisemakers during the party scene, and call out witty, often tasteless one-liners: “Susan’s on the ra-ag; now the rag’s on her head!” Somewhere between screen and seats, a cast of actors acts out what’s happening on stage...

...naked man in the baby pool posed fetchingly on all fours. Krylon Superstar had just wriggled out of his tutu and sprinkled himself with glitter. It was time for the grand finale. A stagehand emerged to light a sparkler, which fizzed cheerfully, sending off little flickers of white light. The sparkler, of course, was sticking out of Krylon Superstar’s ass.
