Hello and welcome! I am quite fond of Tim Curry (i.e. I want to have his babies). You will find that my blog, for the most part, is dedicated to him. Because, well, Tim Curry.

@reggiefoto: Flashback Friday to that time I got to shoot iconic actor Tim Curry backstage at an LA Shanti event. He was funny, gracious, and very approachable. And this is still one of my favorite portraits.

“I want to look like I could drop a ginger child off a bridge whilst simultaneously singing Broadway hits, Brian.” - something he probably said.

You taught us so much. Rest in peace, Koko.

On the 16th of June 1973 The Rocky Horror Show began previews in the Royal Court Theatre Upstairs, London. They held their official, thunder ridden, opening night on the 19th of June 1973.
2013 marks the 40th Anniversary of this incredible production and I want to share some Frankie love here on Tumblr in a tribute to ‘the man who began it’ - Dammit. Well one of them. The one who stormed that stage forty years ago with such style and perfection that we’re sitting here forty years later, still talking about that tiny little production which by rights should have disappeared into the zeitgeist after the originally intended three week run.
So, Tumblr, can we get 4711 notes by 19th June?
If we do it.
I will post a rare - never before seen - photo from the original Theatre Upstairs production.
Well. How nice.
Wow! 45 years later now!
Tim Curry is badass and has the best sense of humour ★

Hello, Gorgeous.
The work for me is Total. I’ve found that, for the first time, actually I’m beginning to be a bit schizophrenic in that…if you spend the whole day in a pound and a half of Max Factor - at the end of the day when you wipe it off - there’s always a little bit left in the cracks.

“But I think the reason why actors get upset about it is because they think it’s going to limit the kind of work available to them and that hasn’t been the case for me at all. And I see no reason why it should be and I think it’s absolutely vital that one should – should give everybody the benefit of the doubt that, you know, – that they’re capable of, you know, seeing other things. I mean – I don’t lose any sleep over it – I really don’t.”
