THE ROCKY HORROR SHOW Comes to City Theater Next Month Image

City Theater closes it's 21-22 season with the cult classic THE ROCKY HORROR SHOW running July 22nd through Aug 7th.Book, music and lyrics by Richard O'Brien. The 1973 musical that became a movie and started nonstop cultural phenomenon. THE ROCKY HORROR SHOW is a deliberately kitschy rock 'n' roll sci-fi gothic musical that is more fun than ever.

It was a dark and stormy night when sweethearts Brad Majors and Janet Wiess set out to meet their old college professor, Dr, Scott. They get stuck with a flat tire and seek shelter over at the Frankenstein Place. Little did they know that the mansion is inhabited by alien transsexuals from the planet Transylvania: The devilishly charming transvestite Dr. Frank N. Furter Dr. Frank 'N' Furter and his minions Riff Raff, Magenta and Columbia. Dr. Frank N. Furter is in the midst of one of his maniacal experiments, the creation of a muscular man named Rocky As their innocence is lost, Brad and Janet meet a houseful of wild characters, including, Eddie, a rocking biker and Frank N. Furter's phantom guests:

The cast includes City Theater favorites Caleb Lacy as the narrator, Brie Roche as Janet, Brian McAloon as Dr. Scott, Schuyler White as Riff Raff, Joanna Clarke as Magenta, and Briana Chu as Columbia. New to the City Theater are: Derek Kingsley as Frank N.Furter, Zimra Winters as Brad, Bo Harris as Rocky, and Taylor Gervais as Eddie. The phantom ensemble: Jane Clifford, Sean Farrelly, Taylor Gervais, Christina Gove, Brian Philip Harris, Sophia Hines, KeYana Reid, Tori Stackpole, Ann Williams.
