The musical that became the longest-running theatrical release in movie history is back where it’s meant to be – live on Spartanburg Little Theatre’s stage.
Spartanburg Little Theatre’s summer fringe production of The Rocky Horror Show promises to be a sure-fire hit for long-time fans and first-timers alike. Performances are scheduled through August 1st.
With infamously catchy songs and outrageous B-movie humor, it’s no wonder that Rocky Horror continues its reign as a decades-long cultural phenomenon.
When clean-cut Brad and naïve Janet get stranded on the side of the road and seek help from the Frankenstein place, they never imagine that they’re about to have the strangest, most unforgettable night of their lives. By the time this schlock horror, rock musical masterpiece is over, everyone will be begging to do the Time Warp again!
Diehard Rocky Horror fans are encouraged to dress up for the two midnight shows on July 25th and 31st, where the lucky winners of a pre-show costume contest will win walk-on roles in the show. Prop bags, which are a part of the Rocky Horror tradition, will be sold for $5 at the door (with instructions for use!). For those familiar with the show, callbacks are encouraged – and for newcomers, we’ll be going over the basics in our pre-show.
Tickets for Rocky Horror can be purchased through the Ticket Office at the Chapman Cultural Center, by calling 585-2787 or visiting www.chapmanculturalcenter.org. Please be advised that The Rocky Horror Show is only for audiences 17 and over, as it contains adult themes, language and well, pretty much a little bit of everything else.
