Behind The Curtain

A compelling personal memoir of the authors life, and his invaluable contribution helping to establish The Rocky Horror Show from its humble beginnings in 1973, to a worldwide phenomenon.

---

It’s 1973 and The Rocky Horror Show is about to be launched onto an unsuspecting world for the first time. Martin Fitzgibbon was the young drummer recruited specifically to play an integral part in the show’s success. Here, for the first time, Martin gives his unique insight into how the show and its participants became an overnight success and created a cultural phenomenon which fifty years on still reverberates around the world.

But there was a life before and after “Rocky” too, which although not straightforward, was overwhelmingly one of fun, laughter and surprises.

Behind The Curtain is a tale of contrasting worlds. Of optimism and resilience when dealing with the challenges of life. The authors intention is to take you into that world and leave you with a smile.
