DID YOU KNOW? In 2019, after the Walt Disney Company acquired 20th Century Fox, Rocky Horror was saved from the archival Disney Vault, with executives deciding to allow the traditional midnight screenings to continue. In spite of a rocky launch, the film now has a huge, international cult following and is considered by many to be one of the greatest musical films of all time. In 2005, that was made official when it was selected for preservation in the United States National Film Registry as being "culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant".

Linda Stansfield left this world on August 31, 2023, at the young age of 64. Some of Linda's favorite things included spending time with family and friends, music and musical theatre as well as book club. Top of this list was vacations and weekends at the trailer...her happy place...sitting on the deck, enjoying a coffee with a book in her hand and Jet at her feet. CCMP will remember Linda as a dedicated volunteer backstage helping as crew or ASM. She will be missed by many and we wish her everlasting peace. |
