Saucy Jack and the Space Vixens is a cult science fiction musical reminiscent of The Rocky Horror Show. The 2006 West End run starred Faye Tozer and was choreographed by Bruno Tonioli.[1] The cast interact with the audience as if the audience were patrons of the club in which the musical is set. StoryThe story revolves around a cabaret club called "Saucy Jack's", at which the performers become the victims of a serial killer as they try to leave to better themselves elsewhere. Step in the Space Vixens in their role as investigators and upholders of the oath. As well as Rocky Horror there are clearly influences of Barbarella as the Vixens' interrogation device the Vibratron appears to be similar to the Orgasmatron of that movie and the Vixens' characters more than a little like Jane Fonda's character in that movie. Musically the influences are predominantly Disco with a catchy original score. Characters
HistoryIn 1995 a group of four former students of the University of Kent, Johanna Allitt, Simon Curtis, Mike Fidler and Charlotte Mann,[2] set out to stage a production at the Edinburgh Fringe festival. Their desired production Leonard Bernstein's "Candide" was already going to be playing and so instead they wrote their own piece.[3] The show was made available for amateur licence in 2004 through Samuel French Ltd., and continues to be played by amateur groups mainly in the UK and USA.{{Citation needed|date=July 2010}} References1. ^{{cite news |url=http://entertainment.timesonline.co.uk/tol/arts_and_entertainment/article784137.ece |title=Theatre Review: Saucy Jack and the Space Vixens |accessdate=28 December 2008 |work=Times Online |publisher=Times Newspapers Ltd. |date=January 2, 2006 | location=London | first=Sam | last=Marlowe}} 2. ^'Glitterboots' SaucyJack fan site 3. ^2005 Amateur production home page SaucyJack.org.uk Back at the Edinburgh Fringe 2010, being performed for 26 nights at original venue C Too by The Unlucky Theatre Company a group of talented teenagers from North London.
