The Theater Company (TTC) can't stand the 'antici...pation' anymore! Richard O'Brien's THE ROCKY HORROR SHOW opens next week! This is TTC's second time producing this Sci-fi cult hit. Due to popular demand, it is being staged again after several years of their patrons begging for a revival. But don't expect the same production as last time, 'Rocky can be done in many different ways,' notes Producing Artistic Director David Zimmerman, 'and we are bringing a fresh design and look to the show instead of copying the movie or our past production.
