Richard O’Brien’s The Rocky Horror Show
Devonshire Playhouse presents Richard O’Brien’s The Rocky Horror Show”
Book, Music & Lyrics by Richard O’Brien
Presented through special arrangement with Concord Theatricals
Artistic Director: Eileen Hand Musical Director: Doug Komandt Choreographer: Kelly Lohrenz Stage Manager: Anthony James
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.
Performances: Fridays & Saturdays, October 18, 19, 25 & 26 / 7P
Tickets: $28 – Adults & $23 – Students & Seniors
