The Rocky Horror Show – Rock Musical. At last! The original stage version of the cult movie that has been a “12 clock high” for thousands of enthusiastic movie-goers. Live, on stage, see Dr. Frank N. Furter match wits (?) with the innocent young couple? Thrill to the delightfully trashy rock and roll music! “It isn’t a play, it isn’t a musical, it isn’t a rock concert\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6It’s a sort of glitter, rock, horror, comedy, transvestite circus\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6 And if you love-say, Sound of Music-you will probably hate it.” – WABE-TV. “The Rocky Horror Show is a sicko-wacko-weirdo rock concert. It keeps trying to blow your mind with loud music and perverted sexuality, but is so simple-minded, and so completely silly, that it ends up being a lot of fun. It may get a cult following.”-NBC<\/p>\n
