Rocky Horror Show
In this cult classic, sweethearts Brad and Janet, stuck with a flat tire
during a storm, discover the eerie mansion of Dr. Frank-N-Furter. As
their innocence is lost, Brad and Janet meet a houseful of wild
characters, including a rocking biker and a creepy butler. Through
elaborate dances and rock songs, Frank-N-Furter unveils his latest
creation: a muscular man named “Rocky.” That “Sweet Transvestite” and
his motley crew did the “Time Warp” on Broadway in a 25th anniversary
revival. Complete with sass from the audience, cascading toilet paper,
and an array of other audience participation props, this deliberately
kitschy rock ’n’ roll sci-fi gothic musical is more fun than ever. The
original London production of The Rocky Horrow Show, directed by Jim
Sharman, premiered at the Royal Court Theatre on June 19, 1973 and won
the 1973 Evening Standard Theatre Award for Best Musical. Later
transferring to several other locations in London, the show ran for a
total of 2,960 performances. On March 10, 1975, The Rocky Horrow Show
opened on Broadway at the Belasco Theatre, starring Tim Curry and
featuring Meatloaf and “Ritz” O’Brien. In 2001, the show returned to
Broadway at Circle in the Square Theatre, starring Raúl Esparza, Tom
Hewitt, Alice Ripley and Jarrod Emick. Directed by Christopher Ashley,
the revival ran for 437 performances.
