ABOUT THE ROCKY HORROR SHOW:
A humorous tribute to the science fiction and horror B movies of the 1930s through 60s, The Rocky Horror Show follows sweethearts Brad and Janet on a night they’ll never forget. After their car breaks down, they stumble upon the mansion of mad transvestite scientist Dr. Frank-N-Furter, who is unveiling his latest creation: the perfect man, “Rocky.” Packed with iconic songs like “Time Warp” and “Sweet Transvestite,” this raunchy, ridiculous, and rebellious show is a celebration of liberation, queerness, and the power of live performance.
