Comments: 2 casts, The Absent Friends & The Zen Room.
Both can be seen mostly on Friday night.
Comments: I did perform with one of the Paris casts at the Studio
Galande. They had a Frank in full costume, a Riff and Magenta in full
costume (with space suits), and a Brad and a Janet who were more or
less in costume. Eddie just wore a leather jacket. No one but Frank
really acted out the Floor Show, and they didn't do the dinner scene
or the rain scene. There was very little space to move around, and
people brought 1 liter bottles of water in for the rain scene, so
trying to Time Warp was really dangerous--the floor was slick and
covered with rice. I had an eighth of an inch of rice on the soles of
my boots one night...The cast got in free about once a month and did a
big show. I never did get to see the Saturday midnight cast; my dorm
had a lock-out policy at 2 am. One thing to note if you ever go to
Paris: it's a lovely location, across the river from Notre Dame. But
women, *do not* wear your high heels out of the theater! The
cobblestones will kill your ankles, and the area is a very busy
nightlife area. French women do not wear very high heels unless they
are prostitutes, so bring sneakers for after the show.
