Seeking (all listed roles are available; all characters may be any ethnicity):
Frank ‘N’ Furter:
Late 20s - early 30s. Sexy, masculine, outrageous, cheeky, spoiled, needy drama queen. Larger than life. A genuine, good host. The heart of the show. Sexy to men and women. Charismatic rock baritone voice. Comfortable moving and picking up choreography.
Brad:
20s. Conservative, smart, straitlaced, masculine, confident, attractive, relatable. Hidden freakiness. Must be a great rock tenor.
Janet:
20s. Conservative, smart, straitlaced, feminine, confident, attractive, relatable. Hidden freakiness, moreso than Brad. Sexy, innocent. Must be a great soprano or mezzo soprano. Needs to be coordinated and comfortable with movement.
Magenta / Usherette:
Mid 30s. Overtly sexual, mysterious, untouchable, aloof and outrageous. Think Lady Gaga. Must have a great rock mezzo voice and a strong belt. Must be comfortable with movement.
Narrator / Dr. Scott:
40s-50s. Bookishly sexy, distinguished, worldly, seen it all, pragmatic. Was once a Nazi rocket scientist. Should have a rich speaking voice. Can be an actor who sings.
Riff Raff:
Mid 30s. Unsettling, dangerous, creepy, mysterious. Think Lucius Malfoy from “Harry Potter”. Must be a great rock tenor who moves well.
Columbia:
Late 20s, early 30s. Quirky, sexy, artistic, wounded, emotional, high-spirited. Nothing's going to burn out the fire. Sexy to men and women. In many ways, Frank 'n’ Furter's female counterpart, just more wounded . Must have a great rock mezzo voice with a strong belt. Must be a great dancer.
