 Don’t Dream It … See It
The world’s favourite rock‘n’roll musical opens in February with a brand spanking new production.
It’s astounding, time is fleeting and The Rocky Horror Show is back. We’re starting another sensation and we’re definitely not under sedation!
A new Australian production of the much-loved Rocky Horror Show will open in Sydney on 21 February 2008.
Co-Producer Paul Dainty, Chairman of Dainty Consolidated Entertainment says: “It’s a thrill to be bringing The Rocky Horror Show to the Australian stage. It is a timeless piece of theatre that has spanned decades. I know Australian audiences – both new and old fans – will love this show which stars some of our finest talents.”
“This fresh production is an exciting new take on the world’s favourite rock ‘n’ roll musical. It brings together the hottest cast I have seen for a long time” commented co-producer Howard Panter, Joint Chief Executive Officer and Creative Director of the UK’s Ambassador Theatre Group.
The Rocky Horror Show is an institution and one of theatre’s most endearing and outrageously fun shows.
Its well-known and much-loved storyline goes something like this: Squeaky-clean sweethearts Brad and Janet knock on the door of an eerie house to use the phone after their car breaks down in the rain on a dark and stormy night. Little do they know but they’ve just walked into a convention of beings from the planet Transsexual, led by the irrepressible leather-clad sweet transvestite Frank N Furter. What ensues is a night of music, mayhem and naughtiness where fantasy becomes reality.
The Rocky Horror Show made its debut at London’s internationally famous Royal Court Theatre Upstairs in 1973. While it’s essentially a rock’n’roll show it has also become an iconic brand and an entity unto itself which has defied the decades and continued to grow in popularity.
Millions of people all over the world have seen a production of The Rocky Horror Show and sung along to classics like I’m Just a Sweet Transvestite, Damn It Janet, I Can Make You A Man, Touch-a Touch-a Touch Me, Over At The Frankenstein Place and of course The Time Warp.
