The Rocky Horror Picture Show: Original Cast Spooktacular Tour
About This Event
The Rocky Horror Picture Show Live!, a touring stage presentation tied to the cult musical and its original screen cast, appears at Town Hall as part of The Rocky Horror Picture Show: Original Cast Spooktacular Tour. It functions more like a traveling repertory event than a conventional musical company, anchored by veteran performers, a tight sequence of songs and scenes and audience participation that privileges communal ritual over narrative polish.
About The Rocky Horror Picture Show
The Rocky Horror Picture Show is a 1975 musical comedy horror film produced by Lou Adler and Michael White, directed by Jim Sharman, and distributed by 20th Century Fox. The film is based on the 1973 musical stage production The Rocky Horror Show, with music, book, and lyrics by Richard O'Brien. The screenplay was written by Sharman and O'Brien, with O'Brien also playing the supporting role Riff Raff. The production is a tribute to the science fiction and horror B movies of the 1930s through to the early 1960s. The film stars Tim Curry, Susan Sarandon, and Barry Bostwick. It is narrated by Charles Gray, with cast members from the original Royal Court Theatre, Roxy Theatre, and Belasco Theatre productions, including Nell Campbell and Patricia Quinn.
