- The young couple Brannet and Jed
November 2001
The "Rocky Horror c-base Show" was an homage to the famous Rocky Horror Picture Show, though with a slightly changed plot. Instead of a young woman and a young man, in this version, there is a gay couple looking to get married in the middle of the scene. The two of them lose the way and make it into the c-base, since they were convinced that the space station is actually a wedding chapel. And even more! When Dr. Frank'n'Basler suggests them a certain deal, they are suddenly not only interested in marriage any more... Due to a new technology, Dr. Frank'n'Basler was able to clone humans now several times, so that in future, it won't be a problem any longer for two men to get children. Brannet and Jed are enthusiastic from their head to their feet.
- Dr. Frank'n'Basler
After they had been banned to the closet for some time by Dr. Frank'n'Basler, an opulent dinner is served during which they make the clone deal fix. What Brannet and Jed don't know: They are going to have a delicious alien for dinner, which was happily jumping around just a minute ago and which turns out to be the result of a failed clone experiment by Dr. Frank'n'Basler. There's only one persion which is not very enthusiastic about the meal, and that is the former girl friend of the alien - which she lets everybody know very vociferously.
- "Spring auf oder lauf!"
- The delicious green alien...
- ...is turned by the chef...
- ...into a delicious dinner.
- The girl friend of the dinner is not very amused by that.
- But somebody who's such a bad taste in clothing has not deserved it any better.
- When the circle is coming together, there are always some heavy discussions
At the end of the play, something like the council of elders of the c-base, the so called 'circle' (a committee that is really existing in c-base) is having a meeting and decides, that Dr. Frank'n' Basler has to prohibit every new attempt to clone something, otherwise she had to fold herself into space. But since she already violated the cloning ban, she has to face the unavoidable: she has to fold herself into space.
Despite all these confusing events, our young couple is facing a happy end: They get married by the c-base board computer (c-beam) and having a ball at a big party that is just about to start.
Accompanied is the play by four nice young ladies behind the mics and a fancy young band. Together, they are delivering the dynamic soundtrack (of which at some point I might place some voice samples here) for this unique spectacle that is looking for its comparison in the history of c-base.
- Wow, ladies!!!
Also starring: The hungry loo.
