7 of these 24 names have a person record behind them and link to one. The other 17 are set from the identifier in the cast list, which is a slug of the name — so hyphens and full stops are lost and a few come out wrong. We hold nothing else about them. Nobody here is matched to a character: the cast list records who was in the company and not what they played.

A producer is one string on this record, however many people or companies it names. Directors and choreographers are held both as text and as identifiers; where an identifier exists the name links to a page.

None of these is attributed to this staging. They are filed against Rocky, and nothing in the record says which production any of them documents. Closing that join is the point of this catalogue and it is not closed yet.
Around this production
The show featured a boxing ring that extended into the audience for the climactic fight. Andy Karl received a Tony nomination and later starred in Groundhog Day.
One night, at that point, a man in the audience shouted "Yeah? Let's see 'em!" "What, you want me to drop my pants? I will if you will," Cavett replied. And the man, who was in the first row, stood up and dropped his pants. Of course, both follow spots went straight to the pantless man, leaving Cavett in the dark.

At first, I was scared of the show. I didn’t understand the whole transvestite thing. I had seen Rocky Horror in Miami, and it frightened me—then, after I got into it, I completely fell in love with it.
